Hi
Welcome to Africa Startup Ecosystem Builders Top 100 for 2025, these are visionaries who see things differently, these are value creators not extractors who are moving Africa to be the next frontier. Importantly, in 2024 they secured funding ‘in millions’ to innovate and change Africa in 2025.
Our commitment is to thoroughly understand the veins of Africa’s Startup Ecosystem, so that we can build a world class ecosystem hence our deals tracker, and importantly to celebrate each other by honouring those who are working extra hard to put our ecosystem on the next level through our inaugural ASEB Top 100 - 2025 which will become a permanent event on our calendars on a yearly basis.
Our Vision for AfricaAIN is to help build a world class startup ecosystem for Africa to solve problems for our ever growing population expected to reach 2.5billion '25% of world population' by 2050 and our platform will give you a heardstart in creating value for Africa. We are also bringing practical skills at university level by working with over 100 universities and colleges in Africa to ensure that at least 1 in 100 university students on the continent are able to write world-class pitch decks to solve problems at scale and create value for Africa.
Congratulations to those who have made it on this year’s ASEB Top 100, tomorrow it's your turn. Let’s all put our hands on the deck and build our startup ecosystem to bring development to our continent through value creation!
I am AfricaAIN
Let’s build
Tatenda E Tawonezvi – Chairman
