Olumide Soyombo, one of Africa\u2019s most prolific and active early-stage investors in tech startups, has today announced the launch of Voltron Capital<\/a>, a Pan-African pre-seed & seed firm for elite tech founders tackling critical problems in the continent\u2019s largest markets.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-founded alongside Abe Choi, CEO of Simple Dealer, the new firm will deploy capital in up to 30 startups across a range of sectors and marks a major bid to address the severe lack of access to early-stage funding for African tech companies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a ticket size of $20,000 – $100,000 per company, Voltron Capital\u2019s portfolio will primarily focus on startups in Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, and Northern Africa, and is headed by a founding team with a robust investment track record. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Headed by Soyombo, who is also the Co-founder of LeadPath<\/a> Nigeria and Bluechip Technologies<\/a>, the team has over 10 years of experience in early-stage investing, with a portfolio of 33 African tech startups including Mono, PiggyVest, Spleet, Migo, TeamApt<\/a>, and Paystack<\/a>. During his time as an investor, Soyombo\u2019s portfolio has raised over $70 million, ranging from pre-seed to Series A, and he has also overseen two secondary and one primary exit.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voltron Capital\u2019s Co-founder, Abe Choi, has also invested in 15 tech startups – two of which have been exited, and collectively, the founders\u2019 existing portfolio spreads across a vast range of sectors including finance, energy, logistics, retail, and education.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking on the launch of his new firm, Olumide Soyombo, Co-founder at Voltron Capital, says \u201cVoltron Capital is the beginning of another incredibly exciting journey for Abe and I, but it is also a celebration of the road Africa\u2019s entire tech space has travelled to-date.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olumide Soyombo and investing in Africa<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Soyombo was an early investor in Paystack, the fintech company that exited to Stripe in October 2020. The exit and subsequent liquidity event revealed a maturing in the African tech market, validating early investment decisions. His work in corporate Nigeria has also allowed him to access non-traditional capital for the tech VC ecosystem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identifying and supporting some of Africa\u2019s most high-growth startups with capital at the pre-seed stage has been the startup\u2019s mission to date. Over the years, the VC firm has established relationships with corporates and regulators. Now, \u201cwe want the next wave of African tech success stories to not only make an impact on the continent, but to be truly global,\u201d<\/em> Soyombo says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through Abe\u2019s strategic connections to the USA, \u201cwe\u2019re confident we can provide our portfolio with the best possible opportunities to achieve this through our US and global network.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early-stage funding in Africa<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Despite total funding for African tech startups passing the $1 billion mark last year, according to Briter Bridges, more than half of these deals were attracted by a select group of late-stage startups, leaving numerous early-stage tech firms competing for a limited share of funds.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the IFC, 82% of African tech startups face major problems in accessing capital with insufficient seed funding and a lack of angel investors, some of the most prominent issues mentioned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Africa\u2019s Internet economy projected to contribute over $180 billion by 2025, emerging tech companies are set to play a crucial role in unlocking this value across the continent\u2019s key verticals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, without early-stage funding, many of the startups primed to drive this growth are missing out on vital capital to support their early operations and generate revenue, which is a key requirement for securing later rounds of funding and on a larger scale. The end result of this could not only impact the immediate lifespans of these businesses but also result in a major loss in value for Africa\u2019s consumers, wider tech ecosystem, and ultimately, its economy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the launch of Voltron Capital, African startups will have easy access to early-stage capital. It will also power industry collaboration and regulatory stakeholder management across the continent.
