Bridging the gap between entrepreneurs and capital

We invest in high-growth African ventures from pre-seed to seed stage across all sectors

We accept applications year-round from driven founders solving problems in African markets. In addition to capital, we provide expertise, visibility and community.

BAF is a no-fee, closed, syndicated fund comprised of entrepreneurs and professionals who want to change the fact that less than a fifth of capital going into African startups comes from Africa. Members buy an annual investment ticket and these funds are pooled and allocated to startups that meet our criteria.
