What if Africa’s most valuable natural resource is its entrepreneurs?

African Ngenuity is a compelling blend of memoir, strategy guide, and investing masterclass from American venture capitalist Marsha Wulff, who has spent decades co-investing with Africa’s most driven entrepreneurs. It tells inside stories of a tech startup ecosystem emerging, not despite hardships—but because of them.

Wulff introduces readers to Afropreneurs who are building billion-dollar ventures in a landscape shaped by complexity: scarce infrastructure, regulatory uncertainty, and growth-stunting financing. Yet within this tension lies opportunity. African founders are flipping power dynamics—shaping investor terms, defining their own value chains, and creating resilient solutions the world needs.

You’ll discover:

• Why local insight and lived experience often outperform imported solutions
• How diaspora returnees are turning a “brain drain” into a “brain regain”
• What global investors often miss—and what happens when they listen
• How risk-savvy strategies, angel networks, and collaborative hubs have quietly created the continent’s first herd of tech unicorns, attracting billions in USD of new investments annually.

More than theory, this is a playbook built on practice. It unpacks the messy realities of co-investing across borders and cultures, while spotlighting a virtuous cycle: when African founders succeed, they reinvest in the next generation.

Wulff challenges listeners to rethink development, reframe risk, and recognize that investing in African startups isn’t a gamble. It’s a recalibration of where innovation lives.

This is not an audiobook about helping Africa. It’s an audiobook about how Africa is helping the world and why serious investors are paying attention.
