Our monthly Pitch Days are more than just presentations.
Each month, we host pitch sessions where 4–5 founders present their businesses to our network of angel investors. To some, it may look like another step in the fundraising process, but for founders and investors alike, these sessions represent opportunity, growth, and the possibility of turning ambitious ideas into scalable businesses.

Last month, we hosted another exciting Pitch Day featuring businesses across agriculture, manufacturing, sustainability, and lifestyle products.
We heard from:
🌱 Arc-Lite
An agricultural engineering company providing farm layout design, irrigation systems, pump installation, and the supply of irrigation and pumping equipment.
💍 CKC Jewelry
A business expanding from personalised jewelry into locally produced wedding rings and fine jewelry crafted using Zambian minerals creating locally rooted alternatives to imported jewelry.
🌿 All Seasons
A dual-model business combining a thriving garden centre with landscaping and property maintenance services, addressing the growing demand for sustainable, well-designed green spaces.

The diversity of businesses that pitch through ZBAN continues to demonstrate the depth of innovation and entrepreneurship within Zambia’s ecosystem, while also reflecting the wide range of investor interests we support through our network.

ZBAN was created to bridge the gap between startups and access to funding.

Very few financial institutions offer startup funding because of its high risk nature, ZBAN fills that gap.

20/04/2026

Zambia-based startup Green Fire Innovation Limited has unlocked maximum funding from Catalytic Africa’s matching fund, following a USD 60,000 investment by the Zambia Business Angels Network.

Incubated by Timbuktoo Africa, Green Fire Innovation Limited is a leading provider of sustainable energy solutions and specializes in eco-friendly charcoal briquettes and energy-efficient products designed to reduce reliance on traditional, environmentally harmful fuels. Through its flagship product Green Fire Blocks, this startup is transforming how communities and businesses across Zambia access and use energy, providing a cleaner and more sustainable way to heat and cook.
