A Conversation with Lexi Novitske | General Partner @ Norrsken22 | Acuity Venture Partners | Singularity Investments | Verod Capital | SEAF | Sandler O’Neill

July 26, 2022

In this episode, Lexi talks about how a long visit to the continent prompted her to explore innovation and investing in Africa and eventually moving to Nigeria. She dives into some of her key investment strategies that have helped achieve portfolio success at Acuity and themes and trends that she is excited about. Additionally, we talk about her experience with gender dynamics in African VC and her observation of how, the relatively late development of the tech and VC industry in Africa ("late mover advantage") has helped with building a more inclusive ecosystem.
