African tech founders

  • “It has been fantastic having the P1 team’s guidance and support on this journey. Mika has been the most engaged and impactful investor on Chari's trajectory.”

    Sophia Alj - Chari co-founder

  • “P1 was one of the few VCs that understood quickly the opportunity set we were going after. I could tell these guys were former operators. They were instrumental in helping with follow-on capital, Egypt expansion and even growing Nigerian healthcare partnerships.”

    Femi Kuti - Reliance Health co-founder

  • “P1 is the most transformative investor we have on our cap table – they got us admitted to the YCombinator, introduced us to the best VCs and advised on anything from HR to partnership and product.”

    Shady El Tohfa - Amenli co-founder

  • “We’re grateful we had P1 as our first institutional investor - they connected us with global InsurTech industry experts and provided invaluable insights for our pan african expansion strategy”

    Jihan Abbas - Lami founder

  • “P1 Ventures was one of the most hands-on Seed investors we had: Mika helped us source GM candidates to expand, recruit a Strategy Lead from Lyft, introduced us to Emil Michael, and most importantly reinvested in every single round including our last Series B”

    Noureddine Tayebi - Yassir founder

We believe that African entrepreneurial talent is currently more widely dispersed across the continent than venture capital funding, and we’re here to change that!
