The CEO of the Africa Venture Philanthropy Alliance (AVPA), Frank Aswani, joins Alberto Lidji to discuss creating an impact ecosystem in Africa and to explore the continuum of impact capital, from traditional philanthropy to private sector capital.
A key challenge AVPA is focused on: How to solve Africa’s long-term sustainable growth financing challenge.
We explore the evolving role of philanthropy, as it moves beyond traditional grant-making and embraces a catalytic investing mindset where philanthropic assets are viewed as risk-capital. We also consider the role of philanthropists, which is key to unlocking more private capital and attracting it into the social impact space.
Whether you’re a philanthropist or engaged with corporate foundations, private equity, venture capital, government or non-profits, this episode will enlighten and enthuse you.
