Nigerian continue to raise the bar in getting funded.
This analysis by Max Cuvellier and Maxime Bayen shows the progression of funding for African startups in 2021, and as it has been, Nigerian startups lead, with about $1.41billion in as at December 1.

Meanwhile, only a fraction of funding received by African startups is reported/announced, the majority are not, so you probably won’t hear about many.

This Webinar held on Saturday.

If you follow my social media pages and regularly check my stories on IG and WhatsApp/Facebook status, you would have seen it (alongside others). I often post stuff like that.

It was organised by for Startup founders to learn what investors want in startups, and the speakers included – Co-Founder of Flutterwave, Co-Founder of Andela, and Founder of Future Africa; Dr. Ola Brown – Founder of Flying Doctors Health Investment Company (FDHIC); – Co-Founder of Awabah; and – Co-Founder of First Check Africa. Iyinoluwa, Dr. Brown, and Eloho are renowned Venture Capitalists who have invested in startups across the African startup ecosystem, while Tunji has raised funding for Awabah. They all shared their experiences and gave valuable insights into what investors look out for, and what startups should do to secure funding.

To put this in proper perspective, Dr. Brown’s FDHIC has invested in over 20 startups in the Financial Technology (FinTech) and Health sectors, including Paystack and Helium Health. Eloho’s First Check Africa is focused on female-led startups, investing exclusively in technology ventures led by women, some of which include HealthTracka (Nigeria), Tushop (Kenya), and Foondamate (South Africa). Iyinoluwa’s Future Africa connects investors to mission-driven startups turning Africa’s most difficult challenges into global business opportunities, some of the startups they have invested in include Bamboo, Nexford University, 54Gene, and Eden, with a mission to invest in about 100 startups in 2021. Tunji’s Awabah is a TechStars-backed Pension Technology platform that helps the unbanked and self-employed better manage their pension, they recently raised $200k in Angel funding from early-stage investors including ODBA and Co Ventures and Correlation Capital.

From $400m received in funding by African startups in 2015 (TechCrunch), to $2bn funding in 2019 (Partech Africa), to $2.4bn received in 2020 (including $1.07bn disclosed funding, $1.12bn in Mergers & Acquisition (M&A), and $243m undisclosed funding according to Briter Bridges), and to the projected $2.8b in funding for 2021 (Quartz Africa), African startups have become a toast of both local and foreign investors.

With an average African startup's seed round of $1.5m (Quartz Africa), the Financial Technology (FinTech) sector got 31% of the funding in 2020, followed by CleanTech (Renewable Energy) with 22%, Health with 9%, Education with 8%, Agriculture with 7%, Data and Analytics with 7%, e-Commerce with 5%, Logistics with 4%, and Mobility (Transport) with 3%.

Nigeria, being one of the top 5 countries of investment interest in Africa (others are Kenya, Egypt, South Africa, and Ghana), continues to lead in the Venture Capitalists (VC)'s top destination for funding, with $307m investments in 2020 (Briter Bridges).

However, many Nigerian startups are still unable to get funding largely due to their inability to properly plan their businesses.
If you're in this situation, you need not worry.

My team at has helped at least 5 Founders and Co-Founders get between $150K and $300k in funding in the last 2 years.
