There's limited visibility into angel investing activity in Africa. That is why ABAN has launched the 2025 Angel Investment Survey, in partnership with Briter and the UNDP, to offer the most comprehensive picture of angel investing activity across the African continent to date. The findings will inform policy, shape investment strategy, and position angel investing in Africa at the centre of the continent's economic development agenda. If you have deployed capital into an African startup, or operate as part of an angel network on the continent, we invite you to participate. Take the survey here: https://lnkd.in/dZ2Zg-T4 Application closes 25th February 2026!

Sharing separately so it does not get diluted with other roles. I am really excited about the opportunity to open a Chief of Staff role at Briter, set to work closely with me and help me streamline the complex machine Briter has become, and navigate different priorities, expansions, delivery, product innovation, and client and public engagements. This is a highly strategic and high-pace role which will involve direct engagement with clients, team support, extension of my capacity (and of other C-Suite execs when needed), which will put you immediately in touch with several high-profile organisations, executives, and government agencies globally. It will involve significant travel and the responsibility to represent Briter and me competently and professionally. Please apply here https://lnkd.in/etDewP8R. Do not send ChatGPT-generated applications. What's critical is the ability of the CoS to work and communicate professionally with Briter's leadership, and build trust with the broader team and clients.

Introducing The 100 Innovators Shaping Africa’s Blue Economy catalogue. This catalogue profiles 100 early stage, blue focused innovators building across ocean, coastal, and freshwater systems. It also frames Africa’s blue economy as a distinct and important vertical in its own right, rather than simply a subset of climate. Download here: https://lnkd.in/eK5p9iUh The findings point to a deeply innovative ecosystem, rich in talent and ambition, yet still largely underrepresented in capital flows and policy support structures. Developed in partnership with Katapult Ocean and supported by Norad - Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, this catalogue is designed for investors, policymakers, ecosystem builders, and partners seeking to understand where blue economy innovation is happening and who is driving it. With thanks to Lucretia C. and Ofek Liepaz for their work on this project. Ingrid H. Maurstad , Yann Vaudin , Helena Jensby , Jonas Skattum Svegaarden
