Who We Fund
We operate two specialized tracks so every builder receives capital structured for their exact lifecycle stage.
Idea-Stage Founders
Have a compelling concept and clear vision, but need catalytic capital to build, launch, and prove initial traction.
What we look for in this track:
- Deep domain understanding of a real African pain point
- Clear product prototype, wireframes, or detailed business model
- Resilient founder mindset with relentless execution focus
- Plausible path to early monetization within 3–6 months
Existing Businesses
Already operating and generating sales, but need non-dilutive working capital, trade finance, or growth capital to scale.
What we look for in this track:
- Verifiable operating revenue history (6+ months)
- Clear capital deployment plan with quantifiable ROI
- Demonstrated customer demand or verified purchase orders
- Clean basic bookkeeping & governance commitment
Financing Instruments
No one-size-fits-all loans. We match your business model with the exact capital structure that protects your cash flow.
Loans
Structured term loans with predictable, founder-friendly repayment terms designed for expansion and capital expenditure.
Equity
Direct equity investment in exchange for minority ownership stakes, providing long-term strategic patient capital.
Revenue Share
Flexible payouts tied to a small percentage of monthly sales — pay more when sales surge, less during slow months.
Invoice Financing
Unlock immediate cash flow by converting unpaid corporate or institutional invoices into upfront working liquidity.
Trade Financing
Capital solutions specifically tailored to fund purchase orders, inventory procurement, and cross-border import/export trade.
Bridge Financing
Short-term interim funding designed to bridge execution gaps between major equity rounds or strategic deal closes.
What We Look For
We look beyond superficial pitch decks to identify fundamental pillars of sustainable success.
Market Opportunity
Large or rapidly growing African market addressing essential economic or consumer bottlenecks.
Founder Quality
Relentless execution ability, operational discipline, and deep contextual knowledge of their industry.
Traction
Clear proof of demand — whether via initial revenues, active waitlists, contracts, or strong user engagement.
Scalability
Unit economics that improve with scale and a logical model for expanding beyond initial borders.
Integrity
Uncompromising ethical standards, transparent financial record-keeping, and trust in founder intent.
Coachability
Openness to feedback, strategic collaboration, governance advice, and leveraging partner networks.
