We aggregate funding opportunities relevant to African entrepreneurs and update them regularly. You can access them through our website under the “Funding Opportunities” section, where you’ll find details about eligibility, amounts, focus areas, and deadlines.
Investment readiness means preparing your business to attract and secure funding from investors. This involves having a strong business plan, financial model, governance structure, and growth strategy. MaxWith provides training and consulting to help you meet investor expectations.
Currently, MaxWith does not directly fund businesses. Instead, we connect entrepreneurs with investors, grants, and financial institutions. However, we are introducing a private equity arm to support startups and SMEs through pooled capital in the near future.
We provide training courses in business management, compliance, financial planning, and other areas critical for growth. We also connect you with business networks and conferences that can open doors to partnerships and collaborations.
Access to curated opportunities and some resources is free. However, premium training programs, consulting services, and advanced investment readiness support may come with fees. Details are provided within each program or service listing.
Our main focus is Africa, but many of our courses and resources are relevant to entrepreneurs globally. We also welcome international partners, investors, and collaborators interested in supporting African businesses.
