The Google for Startups Black Founders Fund Africa Program 2021 for early-stage African Startups ($3 million in funding)

 Application Deadline: July 7th 2021



A Google for Startups program giving access to funding to Black-founded startups in Africa.

Through the Google for Startups Black Founders Fund Africa, we are supporting early-stage Black-founded startups and startups that are benefitting the Black community on the continent. We want to bridge the existing fundraising gap for Black startup founders in Africa’s fast-growing technology landscape. This non-dilutive $3 million fund is allocated across a pipeline of 50 investable startups in Africa. The fund is open to all startups that meet the criteria, with priority given to Google for Startups Accelerator and Partner program alumni. This fund will be given along with mentorship support and Google platform credits to help the startups grow.

Requirements


The Black Founders Fund is intended for startups with self-identifying Black leaders or companies directly supporting the Black community.
Google encourage established startups based in Africa who are seeking seed-stage funding to apply.
Currently accepting applicants from the following countries in Africa: Botswana, Cameroun, Cote D'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe.

Funding

Each startup will receive either $50,000 or $100,000. Funding varies according to each startup’s product development stage, current needs, and how much they’ve already raised.
