Impact Fundraising I&P recently closed the first tranche of a new SME-focused fund, I&P Afrique Entrepreneurs 3, with a target raise of EUR 70M. This presents an entry point for fund-related collaboration, co-investment opportunities, and expansion financing for portfolio companies across Sub-Saharan Africa.

Growth Programs The organization has launched multiple accelerator and acceleration programs, including I&P Accélération FARM and I&P Accélération WE4A for women in green sectors. These programs create avenues to source deal flow, partner with ecosystem players, and offer capacity-building or funded scaling support for potential clients.

Regional Presence With offices across ten African markets plus Paris and Washington, I&P has a broad regional footprint. This structure enables multi-country deals, cross-border financing, and localized due diligence, making a compelling partner for firms seeking diversified regional exposure.

Strategic Alliances Recent partnerships and news highlight collaboration with financial institutions and development agencies (e.g., Finance Trust Bank partnership; I&P Digital Energy program with AFD and Gaia). This indicates readiness to co-fund, co-develop, or bundle services with other impact players to scale SMEs.

Tech & Operations I&P uses a modern tech stack (iCIMS, Canva, Drupal, Microsoft 365, Sendinblue, Airtable, Adobe Creative Suite, Piwik PRO Core) to manage talent, marketing, and data analytics. This suggests potential for technology-enabled service offerings, streamlined onboarding for portfolio companies, and data-driven collaboration with the firm.
