Digital Africa Ventures

Serving the underserved and representing the underrepresented, our aim is to bridge the funding and support gap for early stage tech entrepreneurs. We are one of the very few Black woman managed venture capital funds in South Africa and believe our diversity sets us apart.

🎉 1,000 is just the beginning... 🎉

We are thrilled to share that TUNL has reached an incredible milestone, now working with over 1,000 amazing South African brands and businesses! 🇿🇦

To celebrate this achievement, we are excited to upload the first episode of our web series 'Ground Up', featuring TUNL. This episode highlights their mission to make international selling and shipping easier and more affordable, helping brands explode on the global stage. 🌍

In Africa, we say "It takes a village to raise a child," and TUNL would not have reached this incredible milestone without its leaders Matthew Davey & Craig Lowman as well as its incredible team members Tanya C. (featured in the episode), Brett Flugel, & Tsundzukani Nghondzweni, just to name a few.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to Founders Factory Africa, Digital Africa Ventures, Bas Hochstenbach from E4EAfrica, and Jozi Angels for their contributions to the growth and success of TUNL. Your dedication to fostering innovation and empowering startups is making a profound impact in Africa.
