We're startup operators in Africa, backing startup founders in Africa.
They say building a startup is like building a plane after being flung off a cliff, but in Africa, you're building that same plane except blindfolded, with baboons on your back, in a thunderstorm.
We've built and scaled companies in Africa.
We're backed by your fellow founders, late stage investors and operators who have worked with generation defining solutions.

We want to be your Sherpa on your basecamp climb from Pre-Seed to Seed.
Partners, each step of the way.
