Maya Horgan Famodu is the Founder & MD at Ingressive Capital, a $10 Million VC Fund I and $50 Million Fund II targeting early-stage African tech. 

Ingressive Capital seeded some of Africa’s fastest-growing businesses, including  Paystack (sold for $200M+ to Stripe); Mono (Series A led by Tiger and Y Combinator alum); Carry1st (Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz, Google, Riot Games & AET).  40% of the portfolio is female-founded and 50% are Y Combinator alumni.

Maya and her team are building a pipeline from when a student thinks “I want to be in tech” to the time they IPO. As such, she co-founded Ingressive for Good, a nonprofit focused on cultivating technical talent and resources for the African startup ecosystems; and founded Ingressive Advisory, a market entry/market operation that served 50+ international companies to enter and operate across Africa, and they’ve done a collective 50+ deals.
