With my experience as a practicing lawyer focused on Compliance and Anti-Money Laundering; my hat goes off to the Ascension team. Ascension does startup and venture funding the right way. Startup funding is a new way of investing and wealth creation for high net worth individuals (HNIs) in Africa. Not done right, early stage investing can present as a high risk activity for money-laundering. The airtight processes and procedures that the Ascension team employs to vett their fund sources, partners, and portfolio companies, gives me confidence that investors, founders and all other stakeholders are in good hands at Ascension Venture Partners. I have faith in Ascension, as my values align with theirs and I believe in the work they are doing and the impact it has on the startup ecosystem in the region.

It is an honor to join a group of African Entrepreneurs who have consciously sought international education; skill and capital, with the sole purpose of leveraging it for the benefit of the African Continent. Ascension Venture Partners stands at the forefront of the African Renaissance project, catalyzed by selective investments in innovative tech ventures.
