Frequently asked questions
How does LinkMakers Capital source deals in sub-Saharan Africa?
LinkMakers sources opportunistically through networks local to its Johannesburg base, targeting tech and tech-enabled businesses across the region. Its presence on the ground provides access to entrepreneurs in innovation hubs such as Cape Town, Nairobi, and Lagos, where round sizes often fall below institutional thresholds. This embedded model contrasts with managers deploying from offshore offices and relying on intermediaries.
What investment stages does LinkMakers Capital target?
The firm covers a broad venture mandate, from seed to growth stage. This stage flexibility reflects the realities of African venture, where companies frequently need multiple bridge rounds before institutional Series A investors commit. The firm does not publicly distinguish between dedicated seed and growth vehicles.
