“The month in VC” is a regular deep-dive into the African investment space. Each episode wraps up the latest news in African VC, profiles a leading investor, and digs into a key theme or trend in conversation with partner VCs.

In this episode, we chat to Patricia Rinke from the Cathay AfricInvest Innovation Fund, while we’re also giving founders the chance to vent, and tell us about some of their main gripes with investors.
