Samurai Incubate Closes Its Oversubscribed Fund At $18.6m by sleeksavbvy: 9:19pm On Apr 15, 2021


Samurai Incubate Inc. has officially closed its second Africa fund “Samurai Africa 2nd General Partnership” after successfully having raised 2.026 billion yen ($18.6 million).

Since January 2020, the firm kept fundraising despite the COVID crisis, and a total of 54 corporate and individual investors participated. The raised amount surpassed the targeted amount of 2 billion yen ($18.4 million).

Kentaro Sakakibara founded Samurai Incubate, and in 2018, the firm began investing in Africa by establishing a subsidiary called Leapfrog Ventures. From August 2018, Samurai Incubate invested $2.5 million in 20 African startups via the newly established firm. Then in June 2019, renamed itself Samurai Incubate Africa.
