About the Venture Capital Conference
SAVCA proudly presents this year's Venture Capital Conference. This annual conference continues to bring together venture capital industry players to showcase key trends and developments within the sector.
The conference will comprise several panel discussions, presentations from key industry experts and opportunities for industry enthusiasts to network. The conference setting is collegial, informative, and inclusive and will reflect on the wins, challenges, and possibilities for the sector.
This year's event will return to the Hazendal Wine Estate in Stellenbosch, Western Cape, South Africa and will feature representation from local and international institutional investors, fund managers, entrepreneurs, advisors, and policy makers.
This niche conference continues to grow by leaps and bounds, as it managed to attract more than 150 delegates to last year's event. This year, we look forward to hosting more than 200 delegates, as we continue to advocate and promote this ever-expanding sector.
The purpose of the conference is to:
- showcase the venture capital industry within Southern Africa;
- promote the venture capital asset class;
- provide a platform for industry players to network and share information; and
- enable SAVCA to continue building and solidifying relationships with industry bodies such as investors, regulators, and the media.
The conference is best suited for:
- senior-level representatives from venture capital fund managers which are active in South Africa, Southern Africa and other parts of Africa;
- venture capital and private equity investors;
- regulators and policy makers;
- senior-level representatives from venture capital and private equity service providers (including bankers, lawyers, financial advisors and consultants); and
