Unleashing Africa's Tech Potential: Investing in Emerging Markets with Eunice Ajim

from Billion Dollar Moves™ with Sarah Chen-Spellings | Global Venture Capital · host Sarah Chen-Spellings

Today’s guest speaking to the African continent is none other than Eunice Ajim, Cameroonian-American tech entrepreneur and investor who's changing the game. With her fund, Ajim Capital, she seeks to invest in Africa’s best startups at the pre-seed and seed level; leveraging her experience as a former repeat founder herself, including leading a $10M+ tech startup. But what many may not know is her story of becoming homeless while building what she calls the African dream. Eunice’s story is not just a cheatsheet into investing in Africa (which by the way has had 51 Private Equity exits in the last 10 years, with 478 deals worth $8.6 billion), but real talk on how hard it still is to build in the emerging markets. -- On Billion Dollar Moves, we travel across the globe in search of the unexpected leader. Every week, it is our job to deconstruct the Billion Dollar Moves of unicorn founders & funders; many of them, underestimated, long before they became iconic. Many of them, unexpected leaders, just like you. This show is about unfiltered conversations about success, failure, fear, and courage in the pursuit of the next big thing in tech and venture. -- FOLLOW EUNICE: https://www.ajimcapital.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/euniceajim/ PODCAST INFO: Podcast website: https://sarah-chen.com/billion-dollar-episodes/ Watch on Youtube : tinyurl.com/sarahchenglobal Build like a CEO: https://sarah-chen.ck.page/ceoseries FOLLOW SARAH: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sarahchenglobal Instagram: instagram.com/sarahchenglobal Twitter: twitter.com/sarahchenglobal
