Kepple Ventures

Kepple Ventures, primarily through Kepple Africa Ventures, focuses on seed and pre-Series A investments in early-stage technology startups across Africa, with a mission to "create new industries in Africa". Their strategy involves being agile, investing in companies with strong teams and large addressable markets, and fostering collaborations between African and Japanese startup ecosystems. While sector-agnostic, they frequently invest in fintech, logistics, health, and agriculture, and seek companies that build infrastructure, solve inefficiencies, or create new markets.
