VP Pan-African Fund II$84M
Second institutional Pan-African venture fund at US$84 million final close, exceeding its US$75 million target. It invests from pre-seed and seed to pre-Series A and can support companies through subsequent rounds. Its mandate backs market-creating technology across African sectors including financial services, healthcare and enterprise software, with follow-on reserves. The earlier US$64 million first close in November2025 is the same vehicle and is superseded by this final-close amount; LP tickets are not additional fund vehicles.
