Figg

Our mission is to break the barriers to growth opportunities for Africa-focused start-ups and investors. Our vision is to have a truly open investment community - funding solution's to Africa's problems. We believe in the power of community, which is the central idea in everything we do, at figg. We believe in the decentralization of early stage capital.

We believe African entrepreneurs and teams are best placed to solve problems unique to Africa while creating value for all stakeholders. We aim to facilitate the relationship between entrepreneurs/teams building the future and the community. Everyone has a part to play. The backers, the builders and we, the promoters. Let's build the future of Africa together.

Risk warning

Investing in early stage businesses involves risk as they are an illiquid asset class, which do not pay dividends and can only be liquidated during an exit event like an acquisition or a public listing. Figg is targeted at financial backers who are adequately sophisticated to understand these risks and make their own investment decisions. You will only be able to invest through Figg once you are registered as adequately sophisticated.

While investing in startups or early stage businesses can be extremely lucrative, they also have a high failure rate and any investment in these businesses should be part of a wider portfolio diversification strategy. Read the full Risk Warning
