Essex Ventures

Connecting investors with the value chains that build the products and services used by millions

A pan-African micro-vc impact fund focused on seed and pre-series A stage investment opportunities in artificial intelligence and machine learning. The fund extends its resources to the African-tech community with seed-stage investments, creating huge opportunities for the Afro-tech eco-system in an otherwise difficult international business environment. This specialist strategy is the most important aspect of our business. The principal fund will close an exceptionally large funding gap with respect to its prospective pre-series A stage investments, aligning the objective of nurturing disruptive innovation through artificial intelligence with the interests of its partners and investors.
