Invest in Africa Summit 2023 is set to provide start-ups and innovation hubs in Africa with an exciting opportunity to gain access to markets and investment. Start-ups and innovation hubs are invited to participate in the deal room during the summit in May 2023 in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The Invest in Africa Summit 2023 is a business conference and exhibition designed specifically to promote and facilitate investment and trade between Africa and Europe. With the theme, “Unlocking digital transformation, trade and investment opportunities in Africa,” the summit seeks to facilitate businesses to access markets and financing.

Scheduled to take place on 16 and 17 May  at the Royal Tropical Institute (KIT), the summit aims to gather 1 000-plus key economic players such as government delegations and policymakers, high-profile African leaders, project developers, founders investors, and entrepreneurs. The summit is looking for start-ups and hubs that are at the early-stage, growth stage, or scaling stage to pitch their businesses in the summit.

A two-stage screening process will be undertaken to select 20 start-ups and five hubs to compete across the following economic sectors: agribusiness, digital technology, healthcare, telecommunications, fintech, logistics, tourism, and climate resilience.

Invest in Africa Summit is one of the most important forums for investment, trade, and business into Africa. The summit is recognised as a unique forum to initiate and promote business networking across Africa and to originate and conclude trade, investment, and close new business deals.

This is an excellent opportunity for African start-ups and innovation hubs to showcase their innovative ideas and tap into investment opportunities. The summit offers a platform for start-ups to network with investors, policymakers, and industry experts, providing them with an opportunity to gain valuable insights into the latest market trends and strategies.

Startups and innovation hubs are encouraged to sign up for the challenge and take advantage of this opportunity to gain access to markets and investment. The screening process will be highly competitive, but the summit offers a unique opportunity for start-ups to showcase their innovative solutions and get noticed by key players in the industry.

Invest in Africa Summit 2023 is a testament to the growing importance of the African market in the global economy. With an increasing focus on digital transformation and innovation, the summit offers a platform for start-ups and innovation hubs to gain access to new markets, drive growth, and contribute to the development of the African economy.
