The Biggest Startup Funding Rounds (2025 Highlights)

Although exact numbers for September are hard to pin down, several standout rounds across 2025 reveal where investors are placing big bets:

• Tagaddod (Egypt) — $26.3M Series A to scale its renewable feedstock operations across Africa, Asia, and Europe.
• Arnergy (Nigeria) — $18M Series B in the renewable energy sector, aiming to expand capacity.
• LemFi (Nigeria) — A rising fintech, frequently cited in African funding reports, known for pushing cross-border payments and remittance infrastructure.

These deals show that climate tech, clean energy, and fintech continue to dominate investment flows in Africa. Investors are drawn to solutions that address both urgent needs and long-term viability.

For Q4 2025, the message is clear: capital will likely continue going to startups that provide infrastructure, solve systemic problems, and build with both impact and profitability in mind.
