Why Africa? Cause the size of opportunities are endless French VC Breega has closed $52m of a targeted $75m seed fund to back African startups. The fund will be managed by partners located in Breega’s new offices in Lagos, Nigeria and Cape Town, South Africa. It will cover Africa’s startup hotspots — Nigeria, Egypt, South Africa and Kenya — as well as several French-speaking African countries like Morocco, Ivory Coast, Congo and Senegal.  With Africa’s population expected to grow by 1bn people by 2050, the #VC plans to invest in solutions that address “core needs” that the continent is set to face across agritech, edtech and healthtech. It’ll also back technologies that underpin the critical infrastructures like fintech, logistics and mobility and energy and climate. #Africa #VC #Startups Mattia Voltaggio Annachiara Moltoni Sara Cropo Antonietta De Sanctis Maroane Abdallaoui Mattia Poletti Luciano De Propris PhD Max Brigonzi Marcel Dridje Carla Napolitano Daniele Vitullo Francesca De Felice Guido Guida
