Awura Abena Amponsah

Hello, my name is Awura, and I serve as the Chief Venture Builder and CEO of Bethniel Technology Ventures. Over the past few years, I’ve been deeply involved in building and scaling ventures across fintech, SaaS, and digital innovation.

I’m passionate about giving back to the startup ecosystem and supporting emerging entrepreneurs, particularly at the early stages where mentorship and structure can make the biggest difference. I’m also actively exploring new investment opportunities, advisory engagements, and potential board roles.

Africa’s startup scene continues to inspire me, and I’m looking forward to connecting with like-minded founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders who are equally committed to driving growth and impact across the continent.

I believe strong founders build stronger markets. Having led and advised ventures across fintech, SaaS, and venture building, I understand the strategic challenges early-stage startups face in achieving scale, compliance, and investor readiness. Mentorship is an opportunity to share that experience, guide founders toward sustainable growth, and help shape the next generation of investable African companies.
