Inside AfriOn - Projects section:
Both investors and entrepreneurs are requested to create a project on AfriOn. The details you provide for the project will be then used to match you with like-minded individuals (entrepreneurs will have to fill in more details as their projects come with a business plan section, with the option to hide sensitive details until they allow trusted contacts access). Goals can be attached to your projects, whether it’s for funding, mentoring, or hiring. These goals allow us to match you with the correct people and no one else. So, for example, if you’re looking to give or receive an amount of investment in country Y, we’ll only match you with projects which specify looking for funding in country Y too.
Inside AfriOn - Matches section:
With our simple business card display format, browsing our database feels more like a breeze than a chore. Our innovative algorithm will present you with the matches which correspond most to your business objectives. You can either browse the results based on the match score or by applying your own filters, allowing unique combinations for project type, industry, country, stage, and goal. Once you like a project and would like to get in touch with the person behind it, send them a contact request with the option to add an introductory note. You also have access to an array of management tools when browsing your results such as the ability to bookmark, hide, and report projects.
Inside AfriOn - Contacts section:
Once you’ve connected with someone over a shared interest in a project, you’ll be able to message them in AfriOn. Our messaging system is secure and quick, it is encrypted end-to-end so we’ve eliminated the risk of your information being lost, leaked, or copied. You can exchange texts, voice recordings, and media files to close the deal with your contacts.
Our mission:
With collaborators in France, the United Kingdom, and South Africa, AfriOn’s raison d’être is to grow access to start-up capital, investment leads, and business networking opportunities in Africa, for both global and local entrepreneurs and investors.
Our Vision:
To bring African markets to the world stage.
