Produced in partnership with Atlantica Ventures, and Goodwell Investments, each episode wraps up the latest news in African VC, profiles a leading investor, and digs into a key theme or trend in conversation with partner VCs.

The latest episode sees us speak to Justin Stanford from the Cape Town-based 4Di Capital about his career, company, and investment ethos, while we also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of specialisation within the African venture capital landscape.
