The African Venture Philanthropy Alliance (AVPA) has confirmed that Nairobi, Kenya, will be the host city for the 2025 AVPA Conference, to be held from November 3 to 5, 2025, at the Trademark Hotel.
Under the theme “Future Proofing Africa: Driving Sustainable Investments and Innovations for Resilient Growth,” the flagship event will gather over 400 leaders from across the continent and beyond. The three-day convening will bring together impact investors, philanthropists, policymakers, DFIs, pension funds, and social investments to fast-track Africa’s transformation by mobilising catalytic capital at scale.
“This is more than just a conference, it’s a pan-African movement to rethink how capital flows to where it matters most,” said Dr Frank Aswani, CEO of AVPA. “From Lagos to Lusaka, and Nairobi to Cape Town, we’re breaking down silos and rallying investors, innovators and changemakers to co-create bold solutions that shape Africa’s future.”
