The 2023 ABAN Angel Investor Survey indicates a positive trend in angel investing across Africa, with 84% of investors reporting increased activity. Tanzania is part of this trend but faces challenges in securing early-stage financing, particularly for young and female-led start-ups. The funding gap in Tanzania is estimated at $1.3 billion to $2.6 billion annually, affecting entrepreneurs who lack financial history and collateral. Angel investors can bridge this gap by providing capital and mentorship.
