GUEST: Dr Rutendo Hwindingwi, CEO & Founder of Tribe Africa
In this conversation we zoom into Africa’s venture capital (VC) tech start-up scene, a sector teeming with energy, ideas, and untapped potential. In 2024, global VC funding soared to over $313 billion, with Africa drawing in just under 1% of that total. But behind the modest numbers lies a powerful story of momentum, resilience, and massive upside.
Dr Rutendo Hwindingwi, founder of Tribe Africa, joins us to unpack what these numbers really mean. From the dominance of fintech and cleantech, to the continent’s rising digital wave and surging youth population.
