Raising funds in Africa isn’t just about solid numbers. It’s also about posture, vision, and strategic storytelling. In a competitive and sometimes unstable environment, project leaders must convince demanding investors by adopting the right codes, the right approach—and the right timing.

This masterclass will give you both practical and psychological tools to succeed in your fundraising efforts—whether you’re launching an early-stage venture, expanding a growing SME, or leading a complex, multi-sector initiative.
