Pascal Murasira launches Africa Cities Fund, following Norrsken’s success

Following his transformative success with Norrsken House Kigali, now regarded as Africa’s biggest entrepreneurship hub, Pascal Murasira, the visionary entrepreneur previously featured in a story by TechGyant, embarks on a new venture with the launch of Africa Cities Fund. The development comes after Murasira’s instrumental role in reshaping Africa’s entrepreneurial ecosystem as a leading voice and enabler.

In his LinkedIn announcement today, coupled with an updated profile headline “Developing World-Class Entrepreneurship Hubs in African Cities,” Murasira unveiled his new position as a Founding Partner of Africa Cities Fund, signalling a continuation of his commitment to driving innovation and growth in African cities. This move underscores Murasira’s ambition to “expand the ‘Norrsken concept’ into other geographies and economic sectors,” as a TechGyant earlier story detailed.

Pascal Murasira’s leadership at Norrsken East Africa helped to establish a major Pan-African entrepreneurship hub that brought together startups, investors, and policymakers under one roof. This success story serves as a testament to Murasira’s ability to realize his vision against challenging odds, including navigating a global pandemic.

With the launch of Africa Cities Fund, Murasira aims to further his mission of promoting innovation and entrepreneurship across Africa, leveraging the insights and experiences gained so far. TechGyant’s previous reporting on Murasira’s endeavours provides context for his latest venture, showcasing a trajectory of impactful and transformative projects driving change in the African innovation ecosystem through investment and urban development.

As Murasira embarks on this new chapter, TechGyant will continue to follow his journey, providing insights into the emerging landscape of African entrepreneurship and its potential impact on the continent’s future through the project.

Meanwhile, expert sources in TechGyant’s network are largely optimistic and say by transforming prime real estate into innovation hubs; this initiative will be on its way to powering economic growth, creating job opportunities, and driving regional impact in Africa and other emerging markets.
