INVESTING IN BOLD IDEAS and partnering with enterprising founders intent on eradicating poverty in this generation.

We create and invest in social enterprises that impact lives across Africa.

We seek long term sustainable and profitable businesses that are intent on deeply impacting the issues that affect the day to day lives of poor and marginalised communities. We recognise the phenomenal talent and desire within those communities and our role to support and enable teams to transform their own environments.

We aim for direct investment into businesses rather than following an indirect or passive approach. This enables us to become more deeply involved in business coaching and mentoring within our investments. We continue to develop strong Local Investment Partners who have long-term, in-depth knowledge of the countries and regions we invest in. This allows us to identify a pipeline of potential investments which very clearly meets our deep impact requirements and to develop the close relationships we seek within our investments.
