Beyond capital, the Fund leverages Persistent’s tailored Venture Building platform to accelerate the growth, operational maturation, and scale of its portfolio companies. The Fund aims to catalyze Africa’s Energy, Agriculture, and Resource Transitions. While its core strategy targets investments from pre-seed through Series A, the Fund retains the flexibility to provide later-stage follow-on capital to high-performing portfolio companies.
