Investment thesis
Bold Angel Fund aims to address the imbalance in African startup funding, where less than a fifth of capital invested in African startups originates from Africa. Structured as a no-fee, closed, syndicated fund, its members pay an annual investment ticket that is pooled and allocated to qualifying startups. BAF invests in high-growth African ventures across all sectors at the pre-seed and seed stages, seeking to bridge the gap between entrepreneurs and capital on the continent.

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
