About BIG Marketplace Africa

BIG Marketplace Africa is a Johannesburg-based platform that verifies small and medium enterprises and links them to funding and growth opportunities. It describes itself as an AI-powered, blockchain-backed trust engine for SME funding.

Pre-vetted businesses build a single trusted profile, which they can use to connect with funders, customers, service providers and support programmes. The model aims to reduce the effort of due diligence for funders while giving smaller businesses a route to finance and market access. The platform is aimed at small, medium and micro enterprises across Africa that need to show they are credible and market-ready.
