Meanwhile, South African agritech startup **Khula** closed a **$6.7 million in the** first tranche of its Series A funding round to scale its digital marketplace for African farmers, further enhancing its reach in the region.

Interestingly, in a long while in southern-central Africa, Zambian cooking solutions provider **Supamoto** received a **$4.3 million investment** from PIDG and EDFI through the Electrification Financing Initiative (ElectriFI) to drive clean cooking expansion in Zambia. AI-driven content platform **FanTV**, built on the Sui blockchain, also made headlines with **$3 million in Series A funding** to enhance AI tools for creators, with backing from Mysten Labs, Cypher Capital, CoinSwitch Ventures, and Illuminati Capital.

On a smaller but notable scale, Kenyan re-commerce startup **Badili** gained **$400,000** **in debt funding** from French development organization Proparco to support its refurbished electronics initiative. 

Meanwhile, Egypt’s waste management platform **Mrkoon** secured undisclosed bridge funding from A Ventures, increasing the investor’s stake to **28%**—a strong signal of confidence in the startup’s expansion. UAE-based fintech **BILRS** also raised an undisclosed funding round from Salica Spring Studios, positioning itself for further scale.

Overall, this wave of investments shows that confidence in tech solutions across the region is still growing strong. However, it will be interesting to see how they shape their respective industries in the coming months.
