Nigeria based, investing across Fintech, Healthtech, Energytech and Mobilitytech in Africa.

What we back

Sectors that Africa runs on

We invest in the systems other businesses depend on, and that customers rarely see.

Send us your deck →

Fintech

Payments, credit, and the settlement rails underneath them. The layer other businesses are built on.

Healthtech

Access, records, diagnostics and delivery. Systems that shorten the distance between a patient and treatment.

Energytech

Metering, distribution and clean generation. Infrastructure that keeps the lights on and the meters honest.

Mobilitytech

Moving people and goods. Transport, fleets, last mile delivery and the routing and payment systems behind them.

We look for companies solving unglamorous problems.

Criteria

What we look for

Traction you can show us

Anything real beats a projection. A pilot, a first paying customer, a signed offtake, a licence in hand. If it is early, tell us what you have tested and what it taught you.

Founders close to the problem

The best products here come from people who have felt the friction themselves, or spent long enough near it to know where it actually hurts. We would rather back that than a polished plan built from a distance.

Built for how this market works

Regulation, infrastructure and how people pay differ here. We look for products designed around those realities from the start, not adapted afterwards.
