Super Capital, a Europe-based angel network and club deal platform, is setting its sights on Africa and the Middle East. The firm has announced the launch of its MEA Club, a new investment initiative designed to support high-growth startups across key sectors in the region.
With strategic backing from Axel Peyriere, co-founder and CEO of AUTO24.africa, the expansion marks a significant step in Super Capital’s mission to connect European investors with emerging market innovation.
Why the MEA Region?
The startup ecosystems in Africa and the Middle East are evolving rapidly. With rising entrepreneurial talent and increased digital adoption, the region presents a strong case for early-stage investment.
“We’re not just providing financial support — we’re backing visionary founders with hands-on involvement and long-term commitment,” said Axel Peyriere.
Super Capital’s move reflects a broader trend. It shows growing global interest in the fintech, healthtech, SaaS, mobility, and consumer services sectors across these dynamic markets.
Inside the MEA Club Model
The new Super Capital MEA Club will invest in 10 promising startups every year, providing funding tickets between €100K and €250K per startup.
- ✅ Targeting high-growth sectors:
- Fintech
- Logistics
- SaaS
- Healthtech
- Mobility
- Consumer services
- ✅ Founder-first approach
- ✅ Strong network of European angels and family offices
- ✅ Focus on hands-on support, not just capital
Through this initiative, the firm aims to offer more than just early-stage funding. The MEA Club will provide strategic value, follow-on capital, and market expansion support—essential ingredients for scaling startups across complex emerging markets.
Backed by Experience
Super Capital was founded by Corentin Orsini, Thibaut Gimenez, and Frédéric Baecke. Known for its high-quality deal flow and tight-knit investor community, the firm brings together Europe’s most active angel investors and family offices under a collaborative investment model.
“Africa and the Middle East are home to exceptional entrepreneurial talent and rapidly growing tech ecosystems,” said Corentin Orsini. “Our goal is to connect this innovation with the capital and mentorship needed to scale globally.”
What’s Next?
With the MEA Club officially launched, Super Capital is now scouting startups ready to scale and deliver real impact. The firm is also encouraging more European investors to explore long-term opportunities in emerging markets.
As Africa and the Middle East continue to rise on the global tech stage, Super Capital’s expansion reinforces the growing bridge between European capital and regional innovation.
