The African Business Angel Network (ABAN) and a consortium of leading actors have launched Africa's Sports & Creative Early Stage Investor Network, a network dedicated to mobilizing vital capital for high-potential startups in the sports and creative sectors.

ABAN, the largest pan-African business angel organization, has partnered with TRACE, El Carnaval Limited, and Punuka Attorneys & Solicitors to launch this network, which aims not only to provide financial support to startups but also to strengthen entrepreneurs' capacities through mentorship, training, and market access.
