Catalyzing Africa’s Female Titans: A Visionary Journey with Valerie Neim, Founder of Invictae
Can you share the inspiration behind founding Invictae and the mission driving your work, particularly in empowering Africa’s female captains of industry who often operate in the shadows?
Valerie Neim: “Invictae was born out of a realization that despite the remarkable achievements of African female business leaders, there remained significant barriers to accessing international investment. Conversations with fellow high-net-worth women underscored this challenge. We recognized the need for a platform that not only celebrated our successes but also provided tangible avenues for growth and collaboration. Thus, Invictae emerged as a private impact community dedicated to catalyzing Africa’s economic potential by empowering its female leaders, who often operate in the shadows despite leading business empires on the continent.”

At the Head of Invictae: Valerie Neim
Valerie Neim is the founder of The Invictae Private Community.
An idea born from countless conversations she had with high-net-worth women, who like her had succeeded in reaching the top of their industries in Africa, yet still found foreign direct investment inaccessible.
“The problem is nobody knows that we have proven track records, that we have built sustainable heavy industries, or that we have been brave and savvy enough for 10 lifetimes to be where we are. But the biggest thing they don’t know is that we are far from done.”
This is Valerie’s message as she rallies members and partners throughout the world, who are sick and tired of waiting for private-sector investment on our continent to change.
