IANUA Meet the Founders - Venture investing as it should be

​Meet the Founder: 4DX Ventures: Venture investing as it should be 

​There was a time, when you looked at a founder, his vision, his track record, his team and took a view on whether to back this wonderful gem. Not dictated by spreadsheets, AI and pretty decks (yes all useful input, but not critical), but by real validation, reference calls, site visits and actual case studies and blind testing. The founders of 4DX with decades of investment experience in the US, have taken this raw concept and created one of the first and arguably, one of the most successful Venture firms in Africa with a top quartile performance track record over a decade.  

​Join us to hear Walter Baddoo spill the beans on how 4DX have transformed Venture investing and attracted LPs like Silverlake, and former family investors of Baidoo, Tencent, Paypal and Facebook into the fund. What is the secret to get companies like SpaceX to actively monitor and acquire portfolio companies. Perhaps there is a way to get African returns without the political headache (or even the “African Risk”)?
