Investment thesis

SoftBank Vision Fund Emerge is a venture capital fund focused on Seed-stage tech startups in Africa. Unlike typical VCs, they operate as a fund-of-funds, investing in early-stage investment firms rather than directly in startups. This model allows them to access a wider pool of startups. With investments in innovative companies like Kwara, they're shaping Africa's tech ecosystem one seed at a time.
