Ethiopian Angel Investor Group Launches | Invests in Across Express

Angel investors in Ethiopia have created the Addis Ababa Angels Network, the first in Ethiopia in a move to provide adequate funding for early-stage innovative startups.

The launch of the Addis Ababa Angels Network bring to an end the reliance on bank loans as Ethiopia does not have Venture Capital entities willing to invest in high-risk ventures.

With the formation, the network members are motivated to drive the success of start-ups and, broadly, give back to society. They bring knowledge, skills, contacts and personal capital for Ethiopian Entrepreneurs.
