Monthly Round-up – February 2025

We’re less than two months into the new year, but we have lots of updates to share from the team here at Chapter54, including the onboarding of two new companies! Here’s a look at what we’ve been up to:

👋 We were thrilled to have OVHcloud, Europe’s leading cloud provider, join the Chapter54 acceleration program. With over 450,000 servers across 43 data centers and operations in over 140 countries, OVHcloud is already making an impact in Africa - most recently by launching a local zone in Morocco in partnership with Maroc Datacenter. Now, we’re working together to further scale their business across the continent. Welcome aboard to the entire OVHcloud team!

🔐 We also welcome Kikimora.io, a Bulgarian cybersecurity platform powered by SoCyber, to Chapter54! With over 500 projects completed for clients like Societe Generale and Raiffeisen Bank, Kikimora.io provides a powerful tool to manage vulnerabilities, security weaknesses, and misconfigurations. As cybersecurity threats rise globally, we’ll support Kikimora.io in becoming the go-to security partner for African SMEs and beyond.

🇳🇱 We hosted our first Chapter54 get-together in the Netherlands, bringing together Scaleups, mentors, and partners for an evening of networking, great conversations, and community-building. A special highlight involved Wout Dingenouts who shared insights about the work we are doing with BUKU. We’ll be back soon!

As always, we’re here to support ambitious Scaleups navigating expansion across Africa. If you’re on this journey, let’s connect!
