LabEight* is a venture capital firm that invests in innovative seeds and growth-stage companies based in Africa.

The Fund will be raising $25 million by selling LAF tokens on Tokenizer platform.

The fund will partner with entrepreneurs to increase their chance of success by applying their extensive operational knowledge and providing market access through our global network. It aims to bridge the early stage and venture capital investment gap that currently exists in Africa.

The fund expects to achieve this objective by combining capital with mentor and partner networks in the continent and globally.

LabEight Fuel Fund is a seed and series capital fund specializing in USD $100K to USD $1M investments in early and growth-stage tech and tech-enabled start-ups in Africa.

The fund aims to capture value missed by existing financial products and expects to achieve this objective by combining capital with a network of growth partners, activating their social capital to increase brand exposure and grow revenues for portfolio companies in exchange for an equity share in the company and profit participation.

LabEight* believes in a Bottom-Up Economy — the idea that technology is now helping individuals and small businesses to drive economic growth and innovation. Today, the accessibility and flexibility of technology empower both individuals and small teams.

These factors allow entrepreneurs and startups to compete with large organizations or create entirely new markets with innovative products and services.

As inventor Ray Kurzweil has said, “a kid in Africa today has access to more information than the president of the United States did 15 years ago.” Our bet is that the kid in Africa will use that information to become an entrepreneur…and we hope she looks us up.
