A picture may be worth a thousand words—but this video says even more! Catch highlights from the first 2026 industry event of the BKR Catalyst Institute, combining both the VC Fellowship Cohort 4 and the Launch Readiness Program Cohort 2, and hear from the participants about their experience. We are grateful to this cohort’s Fellows Baba F., Cedric Bourdelais, Eleni Belete, Funke Yusuf, Nas R. CFA, FRM, Nathaniel Boateng, and Serge Muhirwa, and our Launch Readiness Program residents Oluwadara Adekunle & Nancy Banyong, CSC,PMI-RMP with Farmties Capital Limited, Colin Bérubé & Ismaila Ndiaye, MBA with Fonds Afro-Entrepreneurs, and Kathryn Lawrence with Nobellum. You brought incredible energy and curiosity to the room. We had the pleasure to have David Eboh (RBCx) with us for a welcome speech, as well as Taku Murahwi (OMERS Ventures) and Dinar Ahmed (BDC Capital) who came to share insights on what it takes to not only break into but succeed in venture capital.
