Lina Kacyem brings over 20 years of comprehensive financial industry experience spanning venture capital, development finance, insurance, and consulting to MobilityX Africa's Advisory Board. Currently serving as Investment Manager at Launch Africa Ventures, she leads investments across Francophone Africa while being based between Abidjan, C么te d'Ivoire, and New York City.
Her deep understanding of African venture capital landscapes, combined with her role as co-founder of Next Millennia Angels - an angel network focused on positioning Africa for exponential growth - makes her uniquely positioned to guide MobilityX's investment strategy and continental expansion.
Her venture capital expertise spans multiple geographies and fund types, having worked with Recast Capital (investing in minority emerging fund managers) and Global Ventures (a Dubai-based VC investing in the MEA region). This diverse experience positions her perfectly to guide MobilityX's fundraising efforts and help structure the African Mobility Investment Network (AMIN).
Her understanding of both institutional and angel investor perspectives, combined with her deep knowledge of African market dynamics, regulatory environments, and investment landscapes, will be crucial as MobilityX evaluates mobility startups across its 15 target countries and develops strategic partnerships.
