Voices for Change - Grégoire de Padirac, Digital Africa
Published on
In this episode of Voices for Change, Grégoire de Padirac, CEO of Digital Africa, reflects on Digital Africa’s commitment to supporting African innovation and shares a strong belief: the solutions to the continent’s challenges exist and they are being built by African entrepreneurs.
Each year, Digital Africa invests in around thirty startups across the continent, with a particular focus on underfunded ecosystems beyond the major tech hubs. From AI solutions for African languages with ToumAI to financial inclusion initiatives in Cameroon through Paysika, these ventures demonstrate how local innovation is addressing real needs while driving long-term economic transformation.
A subsidiary of Proparco, Digital Africa supports startups from their earliest stages through scaling, helping build the next generation of African champions. An ambition rooted in a simple conviction: trusting African entrepreneurs means investing in a shared future, for Africa and for Europe.
