​Black Capital Exchange

​Exploring capital, customers, expertise and opportunities in diverse markets

​If Lisbon wants a thriving Black entrepreneurial and investment ecosystem, what infrastructure actually has to exist to sustain it?

​Join MELLA Supply × Strategic Disruption Consulting during Web Summit week to explore what is already working, where connections remain fragmented and what founders, capital providers and ecosystem partners can build together.

​Finance is part of the picture. So are customers, specialist knowledge, distribution, partnerships and trusted relationships.

​Expect a welcoming, energising room bringing together founders, business leaders, capital providers and ecosystem partners to exchange experiences, celebrate what is being built and explore relevant connections.

​What to expect

• ​A short hosted conversation about the infrastructure connecting businesses with capital, customers, expertise and markets.

• ​Perspectives from Black and Afro-Lusophone founders and ecosystem partners.

• ​Time to connect across sectors, borders and the diaspora.

​Who this is for

​Black and Afro-Lusophone founders and business owners, alongside investors, angels, lenders, corporate buyers, experienced operators, specialists, institutions and community organisations interested in this business ecosystem.
