AfricaGrow

AfricaGrow is a fund of funds domiciled in Germany, which aims to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and start-ups on the African continent, by investing in Pan-African regional and country-specific private equity and venture capital funds with proven track records and capacities. The Fund intends to have a catalytic effect on the emerging and dynamic African SME and start-up ecosystem, and thus contribute to the promotion of jobs and income, as well as strengthening sustainable economic growth. 

As a legally independent entity, AfricaGrow is a central instrument of the Compact with Africa initiative, which was launched in 2017 under the 50 German G20 presidency.
