Hindsight Ventures is an Africa focused ESO, working with partners from industry, academia and Gov't.
About us
Bullish about the prospects that the African tech startup ecosystem presents, Hindsight Ventures is an accelerator dedicated to early stage tech startups from Africa. Our thesis is based on the experience gained by our founders having cut their teeth in India’s burgeoning startup ecosystem from 2013 - 2020. Early stage startups come with risk, and we aim to overcome that by having a program structure that has elements that allow us to work closely with exceptional founders, building scalable solutions for addressable problems - and making them investable ventures. At Hindsight Ventures, we will be charting the familiar terrain and themes, with a vision to convert our hindsight into insights, and enable our portfolio startups with foresight.

✅ It's been 3 weeks since we kicked off live sessions for the Innovation Managers Executive Learning Program, and almost a week away from finishing our 1st Module of the program. ⏭ In addition to the diversity in industries and geographies in the cohort, it is quite interesting to get different perspectives on the innovation ecosystems and how the conversations we are having are shaping up and transforming ESOs one IM at a time . ♻ All the way back discussing the role of ESOs in driving innovation in Africa, some of the key points mentioned by our panelists include: ✨Joining the dots in the ecosystem, entrepreneurs look up to you to help them figure out their business, meet the right people, make the introductions and even knocking on some doors. ✨Having a strong network is vital in all of these and the best way to grow one is to build trust between your self, other enablers, corporates and funders. ✨As the ecosystem is intricately woven together with different stakeholders anchored to each other to drive value, mapping out the role played by every unit becomes a critical aspect of running the hub. Assignment submission saw the cohort research on "how it's done" at least for local context i.e local incubators, academia and global context, YC among others. Taking lessons, learnings and best practices to design and run a leading program for entrepreneurs and for the market. As we progress on with this journey, we are grateful for the speakers who have shared their insights with us and looking forward to the upcoming sessions. Auri Evokari Vuyisa Qabaka Judith L.

Today, Startup Réseau turns 5! This post is a shoutout to partners, with who's support we have been building a bootstrapped, "made in India" brand catering to emerging markets, and at the intersection of startups + technology + innovation. Yes, we do operate startup accelerators and #Startups are our core; but then, we have been fortunate to work with Fortune 500 companies + home grown large corporations across diverse industries, unicorns, fast growing tech companies, international universities, governments, development agencies and try creating value for them by keeping entrepreneurship and innovation at the heart of it. We have impacted 1,000+ startups through our programs, worked with 50+ institutional partners and operated programs across 20 countries; in addition to expanding to Nepal, and successfully launching extensive operations across multiple countries in Africa under the Hindsight Ventures brand. Jagruti Bista Gaurav Kulkarni and Kanish Goratela have been with me on this journey all through the 5 years, so a big thank you to 3 as well :) I'd also like to thank each individual who worked with us at some point in time during these 5 years, and just put it out there that your contribution has played its part in getting us here. Hitting refresh and reset, as we dive into the next 5 years and beyond. Anshul Ajay Vansh B. Aman Aragonda Claire Sonia Rose Urassa Vedant M.
