Afrovest Foundation is the 501(c)(3) public charity within the broader Afrovest  ecosystem connecting global capital with investment-ready businesses across Africa, the diaspora, and U.S Black-owned businesses globally. At the center of our work is a curated investor matchmaking process that connects businesses with investors based on sector, geography, investment stage, check size, and capital needs.

​

Beyond matchmaking, Afrovest brings together investors, founders, business leaders, government stakeholders, and institutions through the Afrovest Investment Summit, Afrovest Angel Network, and entrepreneurship initiatives. Through these efforts, we aim to strengthen investment networks, expand access to capital, and create meaningful connections between investors and entrepreneurs.

​

Our mission is bold: to unlock entrepreneurial potential across Africa and the diaspora while also expanding opportunity for U.S Black-owned businesses, with the ambition of mobilizing over $500 million in capital toward promising businesses over the next decade. Learn More
