Dream VC x Peachscore Partnership Announcement
Leapfrogging has long been a buzz word affiliated with the African tech scene, but investor evolution has fallen behind. Dream VC is pleased to announce a partnership with Peachscore, a groundbreaking company driving the adoption of data-driven and intelligent decision making for startups and investors alike.
Dream VC is a fully remote, free VC fellowship program, established in 2021 to democratize access to underrepresented individuals specifically interested in becoming active ecosystem players and trailblazers in the African VC space.
“The thesis of Dream VC is to shed insight into the historically opaque Venture Capital Industry” states Mark Kleyner, co-founder of Dream VC.
“This mission is deeply aligned with Peachscore, who believes that all entrepreneurs deserve a chance to access ecosystem resources by eliminating communication and evaluation barriers — as they call it, ‘Mass Startup Acceleration’”
Using their proprietary AI-driven algorithm, Peachscore functions by aggregating, integrating and analyzing thousands of metrics relevant to making an investment decision. Peachscore then easily highlights each company’s strengths and weaknesses. The system interprets factors such as founders, management team, product, financials, legal, competitive landscape and market opportunity. Founders and entrepreneurs can access their unique Peachscore metric that serves as an indicator and benchmark to the factors that impact attracting potential investment capital. The information used to generate the score is then outlined in a comprehensive report with detailed annotations and ratings for each dimension, empowering startup founders and entrepreneurs to better understand what needs to be done to raise capital from investors more efficiently.
“We are pleased to announce our international partnership with Dream VC who will further accelerate African entrepreneurship by leveraging our technology. Peachscore’s core values and commitment to driving democracy across the entirety of the private capital markets is mutually found in Dream VC’s mission. We strongly believe this partnership will help drive capital and growth in the emerging and exciting African startup ecosystem.” says Andrew Walsh (co-founder & CGO Peachscore©)
Additionally, Peachscore will match startup companies with investors whose profiles, criteria, and investment theses align, rapidly speeding up the capital sourcing process and creating an accessible environment where startups can easily interact with investors to receive funding. All information and scoring is private and free to use for entrepreneurs who join the platform.
Peachscore is currently operating in beta, and access can only be gained via a waitlist or through ecosystem partners such as Dream VC.
“We hope that by helping bring Peachscore to the African continent, we can further the adoption of next generation screening and due diligence technology to help homegrown African startups.” adds Cindy Ai, other co-founder of Dream VC.
Through Peachscore, founders can access industry leading resources, networks and proprietary insights that can contribute to closing the funding gap in the African VC space.
