DEAL SHARE PANEL DISCUSSION

Co-Investing for Impact in Africa

Co-investment in Africa can be challenging. Investors face hurdles in navigating competition, building trust, and aligning expectations around social impact, financial returns, governance, exits, due diligence, and fee structures.

And yet, co-investment comes with many benefits. Opportunities to reduce costs, share expertise, deepen networks, fill out funding rounds and scale high-impact businesses/social enterprises. All this at a time when the private sector is contributing in unprecedented ways to addressing social and environmental challenges on the continent.

To help boost the efforts of social investors across the continent, AVPA recently launched its Deal Share Platform, a virtual space designed to promote more collaboration and strategic deployment of social capital. Please join us for this panel discussion about how investors can co-invest more effectively to achieve impact.
