Our Investment Philosophy
We don’t just write cheques. We invest something more valuable – our time, talent, and effort. This human capital investment is at the core of our support for Africa's most promising startups. Our engagement and commitment are akin to that of a co-founder, making our involvement deeply integrated and impactful. By investing in the best African startups, we aim to ignite their potential, transforming innovative ideas into successful enterprises.
What Sets QLab Apart:
Sourcing and Starting Up
At QLab, we both invite the best startups in Africa to join us and initiate our own ventures from the ground up. This dual approach allows us to not only support existing talent but also to nurture new ideas and digital innovations from scratch.
Founder Stakes
We take a unique approach to our partnerships with startups. Instead of minor shares, we acquire double-digit, founder-level stakes. This significant investment reflects our deep commitment to and belief in the startups we collaborate with.
Comprehensive Support
Our services go far beyond what typical accelerator programs for startups offer. To justify our larger stakes, we provide an extensive range of support and resources, ensuring that the startups we work with have everything they need to succeed.
