In the spirit of Black History Month, we honor the 44th President of the United States and the first African American president, Barack Obama.

It’s such an honor for the world to have witnessed diversity in the White House. This is a true example that we are all equal.

We believe that the best emerging markets and businesses are born in Africa, and it’s part of our goal to connect with entrepreneurs that are eager to flourish as economy game changers.

It's our dream to help nature and grow into economy movers.

Here at #thevgcgroup we believe that education is the window to the future.

The traditional forms of education are slowly being replaced by more digital forms of education.

We’re excited about this because it makes education more accessible anywhere in the world.

Who doesn’t like being their own boss?

In Africa, local traders are the foundation of entrepreneurship.

African societies depend on them for fresh produce at the cheapest rates.

Moral of the story is, business size does not equate to impact.
