About A²G Lab

Africa Amplified Growth Lab (A²G Lab) was conceived as a response to the gap between enterprise and capital, a women-led, Pan-African initiative designed to unlock Africa’s enterprise potential to create jobs and prosperity, and drive rapid economic growth.

Our vision is to position African SMEs at the heart of economic transformation by unlocking rapid, inclusive growth through storytelling, finance, market linkages, and business advisory support.
