HAVAÍC Universum Core African Fund
The HAVAÍC Universum Core African Fund is an early-stage venture capital fund launched as a joint venture between South African investment and advisory firm HAVAÍC and international investment management firm Universum Wealth. The fund is designed to invest in post-revenue, early-stage technology companies that are "born in Africa" and use technology to solve real-world local, regional, and international challenges. It provides both seed funding and later-stage growth capital to help portfolio companies scale globally. A key objective is to provide South African and international investors with access to African venture capital opportunities alongside established institutional investors.
