AlphaSeeds is a philanthropic investment company founded in 2022 in Switzerland. They act as a seed equity partner investing tax-deductible donations into promising early-stage African agribusinesses. Their unique hybrid model combines the power of philanthropy and sound financial investments.

The goal of the event is to showcase the power of philanthropic investments. By reinvesting any profits into their portfolio companies, the initial donation grows, resulting in a greater impact. This approach promotes a virtuous investment philosophy with long-term engagement and impact focus.
