Elevating African Talent, Africa’s Stories.
Africapreneurs writes about the entrepreneurs, innovators and organizations building businesses across Africa. We publish in English and French, and Francophone Africa gets the same attention from us as the Anglophone side of the continent.
Sections
- Portraits: African founders, innovators and new names worth knowing
- Organizations: startups, investors, incubators and other ecosystem players
- Tools: software and services useful to African entrepreneurs
- Guides: starting, funding and growing a business in African markets
- Insights: data and analysis on the continent’s ecosystems
- News: funding rounds, appointments and market moves
- Opportunities: grants, fellowships and open calls for African entrepreneurs
How we report
We cover Africa on its own terms. We write for readers on the continent first, not for outsiders looking in. A founder’s success story gets checked before it gets told, and we don’t repeat a claim because it sounds good. People come before logos.
Who reads us
Entrepreneurs at every stage, from first idea to regional expansion. Investors and funders looking for reliable coverage. Diaspora professionals with ties to the continent. Development partners working in Africa. And readers who simply want to know what is being built there.
Part of Impactedia
Africapreneurs is one of Impactedia’s media brands, which inform, educate, engage and mobilize their readers. Impactedia is the impact credibility infrastructure for impact organizations across MENA and Africa.
FAQ
Do you cover all of Africa?
Yes. Africapreneurs is Pan-African and doesn’t focus on one country or region.
Why English and French?
A large part of the continent does business in French. Both editions get full coverage.
