Platform for startup funding VC4Africa has announced a special package for investors attending DEMO Africa. For US$650, investors would get VIP tickets to DEMO Africa and associated Investor Summit, and a 1 year Pro account subscription on VC4Africa.
The special package means investors would get 15% discount on DEMO Africa ticket and 15% discount on VC4A Pro Account, in addition to access to companies.
“We want investors to come and meet the top innovators from across the continent because we know you’ll be convinced. These teams are working on ground breaking solutions that are set to disrupt sectors and industries in entirely new ways,” VC4Africa posted on its website.
HumanIPO reported DEMO Africa is to be held at the Oriental Hotel in Lagos, Nigeria, from September 22-26, the first time the startup event has been held away from Nairobi, Kenya.
In an exclusive interview with HumanIPO, Harry Hare, executive producer, DEMO Africa, said while the entry point was Kenya, the vision is to be able to go to every part of the continent.
“We feel a lot of changes have happened in Nigeria, there are more than five hubs operating and we see more startup activities in the country. The government is also playing a big role in catalysing the technology startup and innovation ecosystem and therefore it was easy for us to make the decision,” Hare told HumanIPO.
