KWABENA ANSAH
Whilst I’ve spent the past two years working as an operator at Avant Arte, one of LocalGlobe’s portfolio companies, my background includes a range of experiences. I studied Law as an undergraduate, during which time I was awarded the Freshfields Stephen Lawrence Scholarship in 2018. It is through this scholarship and its simultaneous development programme that I first was introduced to the wonderful world of venture. I have a concurrent career as a professional actor, having worked on BAFTA-nominated films and alongside Oscar-nominated actors and directors.
