The AVCA Annual Conference is the association’s flagship event, which provides the private equity and venture capital industry in Africa with an important platform to discuss the most pertinent opportunities and issues of the year. From humble beginnings starting in 2003 in Cameroon, AVCA has held conferences in Morocco, Kenya, Senegal, Botswana, Egypt, Ghana, South Africa, Nigeria and most recently United Kingdom, and has grown attracting over 500 delegates from over 30 countries globally. AVCA’s conferences have been held across the various regions in Africa in order to expose GPs and LPs to new prospective investment markets.
