Hi, we are Katja and Richard and we are really happy to meet you on our Platform. We know how important it is for you to know who we are and understand our WHY: why are we doing all that? And most importantly to trust us your business, your idea or just your skills!

We are two super motivated and passionate entrepreneurs who love and believe in Africa. We grew up in two pretty different countries (Cameroon and Mauritania) but eventually met up in Germany and worked together. Very often our conversations were bringing us back to Africa with the intention to give back. But we could not find any specific tool that would allow us to do it safely and in a structured way with trackable benefits.

It did not take us long to understand that instead of talking and dreaming we should just be doing. We decided that bringing a tangible solution would be the best decision we could engage in. Through AFRK50 we want people to share their knowledge, we want to encourage entrepreneurship, we want people to access capital and business to meet and create value together.

Because we know that Africa is an immense continent of great people and great opportunities, we want this Platform to give you a simple and safe tool to access that potential.
