SV034: Investing In Africa with Managing Partner of Chrysalis Capital Nichole Yembra Silicon Valley - The Investor's Podcast Network

    • Empresa

On today’s show, we’re happy to chat with Nichole Yembra. Nichole is the Founder and Managing Director of The Chrysalis Co which houses The Chrysalis Capital, a new $15M Africa and Diaspora early stage tech fund and The Chrysalis Advisors, a strategy and investment advisory firm. 
In addition to this work, Nichole is deeply committed to making gender diversity a priority within the financial-technology 'fintech' space in Nigeria and enhancing opportunities for women in leadership. She founded the Garden Women's Network, a group dedicated to the development and retention of high-performing women in the Nigerian tech ecosystem.  
In this episode, you’ll learn: 

What’s it like to be a minority Female Venture Capitalist raising a fund to invest in African Startups? 

Does a typical Silicon Valley Venture Capital fund structure work in Africa? 

Which countries in Africa have a thriving startup ecosystem? 

What are some difficulties facing African entrepreneurs? 

How do African startups expand into new markers? 


We would like to thank Nigel Salina who made the introduction that allowed the interview to happen.
