ABOUT ME.
ABOUT.
WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE,
My goal is to guide entrepreneurs and investors to achieve their potential. I am passionate about Startups, Venture Capital, and finding ways to promote development in Africa through business. In particular, I have a strong interest in Digital Tech, AI, and Fintech.
​​
A bit about me:
My name is Dan Idhenga and I am a London-based Co-Founder of London Venture Capital Network (LVCN) and Investment Director of NTN Holdings. Having lived in ten countries, I’ve developed a global mindset and sharp attention to detail that has provided me with opportunities to engage with people from different backgrounds in a personal and professional capacity.
​
Through LVCN, we provide access to Europe's venture capital ecosystem through events, publications and the London VC Fellowship. We have hosted thousands of attendees, trained 35 VC Analysts in our VC Fellowship, and onboarded 14 VC Partner firms so far. We have worked with a variety of world-class companies including Antler, Notion, Pi Labs, and many more.
​​
As a VC Investor, I am currently working with NTN Holdings to invest in resilience-focused opportunities globally. I have also previously worked at a specialist Fintech firm in the UK, where I built some of my network in the UK ecosystem.
​
I also serve as the Vice President of the Bonny Vaino Idhenga Foundation (BVIF). Since 2014, I have coordinated donations of critical items to underserved communities in Namibia, including incubators for hospitals, food items, clothing, mattresses and more. I collaborate with foreign donors to ensure proper distribution of items to vulnerable groups. I am currently working with a Himba village in northern Namibia to establish a vocational training centre for youth empowerment.
​​
While living in New York, I was a Founding Member of ConfirmD by BuddyCheque, a healthtech startup that was acquired in December 2021. This successful exit was the product of years of experience gained from previous endeavours including at In Case Audio, a startup I Co-Founded in 2016. I’ve learned the ins and outs of bootstrapping and launching a company under the guidance of experienced founders, Angel Investors, and VCs. As a result, I gained experience in building products, solving problems, and leading teams.
​​
I have previously provided private consulting services to clients who need help with various business functions. In particular, I am proficient in business strategy, pitch deck design, financial forecast planning and general startup consulting.
