Points clés à retenir
In a noteworthy deviation from the broader funding downturn in Africa's venture capital scene in 2023, climate tech startups defied the trend by securing an impressive $1 billion in investments. Around one in three dollars invested in startups on the continent during the forecast period was directed towards climate tech ventures. This robust performance underscores both the potential of green investments in Africa and the growing emphasis placed by investors on this domain.
