Vision
Notre vision est celle d'une Afrique qui dispose d'une position économique de premier plan.
Mission
Our mission is to promote entrepreneurship, investment and migration to Africa.
2020: The birth
This year was defined by a clear vision. We focused on our primary mission: to create a strong and committed community. This initial approach laid the foundations for our ongoing commitment to mobilizing the African diaspora in investment in Africa.
2021: On the spot
We structured the organization and launched our first major initiative in Africa: the Repat Africa Tour. On this first trip, our mission was to find the first investment and development opportunities in Africa.
2022: Our investment firm
We have taken an important step by creating our investment company. Repat Invest is a company enabling the diaspora to invest in innovative African startups and SMEs. This initiative reinforces our active commitment to the economic development of the continent through the diaspora.
2023: Setting up in Africa
We continued to establish ourselves as a key player in mobilizing the African diaspora for investment in Africa. Thanks in particular to a team mobilized on site in Senegal and Côte d'Ivoire. But also thanks to the resounding success of the second edition of the “Repat Africa Tour” business trip. This boosted our visibility in the Senegalese and Ivorian entrepreneurial ecosystems.
2024: The first fund-raising
We have reached a significant new milestone with the successful completion of our first fundraising round of 120,000 euros in the startup Kemet Automotive. This initiative marks a major evolution in our business model and reinforces our concrete commitment to innovation and investment in promising African companies. Our influence continues to grow as we collaborate with major global institutions on issues of migration and diaspora engagement.
2025: Further and further
By 2025, Repat Africa aims to radically transform the diaspora investment landscape in Africa.
A word from the founder
In just 3 and a half years, we've managed to generate jobs and make a real socio-economic impact in Africa. We can be proud of our remarkable track record and the tangible results we've achieved. Let's keep innovating to ensure a prosperous future for Africa.

Why Repat Africa?
Our main objective is to create jobs and generate wealth on the African continent.
Since 2019, the African diaspora has become the continent's leading source of financing. In 2022, 100 billion euros were sent by diasporas to Africa, 90% of which was used for family aid.
We aim to direct diaspora funds towards productive, sustainable investments.
In response to this need, we have established a framework of trust that guarantees the transparency and reliability of investments. We encourage diasporas to become fully involved in Africa's economic development through contributions with lasting impact. We also strengthen the sense of community and mutual support by creating a close-knit network that supports collective progress.
