About Us

At Archangel, we believe in women and people who truly want an equitable ecosystem for women. We’re archangels because adding value to founders is our priority. We believe in community, passion, grit, and founders building products that will impact billions of people in Africa.

We’re not afraid to be your first investor and support our portfolios all the way. Our core thesis is to back companies founded or co-founded by women in Africa and it’s diaspora.
