Who We Work With
We work with ambitious businesses that need stronger strategy, financial planning, operational systems or investment preparation to reach the next stage of growth.
Where capital is required, we help management teams build credible business plans, financial models, investment materials and the information investors need to make decisions.
We support impact investors evaluating, investing in and strengthening African businesses.
Our work can include investment assessment, transaction preparation, portfolio support, performance improvement and stronger financial, operational and impact reporting.
What We Do
Business planning, financial modelling, growth strategy, investment materials, due diligence preparation and investor engagement.
Process improvement, ERP and CRM implementation, financial reporting, business intelligence and management information.
Commercial and impact KPIs, governance improvement, management reporting and practical frameworks for measuring development outcomes.
We bring these areas together because sustainable growth depends on the business, its systems and its investment case being aligned.
Where We Focus
We work across sectors where growth can generate both financial value and wider development outcomes.
Financial inclusion, digital payments, SME finance and technology-enabled access to financial services.
Agricultural production, processing, value addition, supply chains and farmer-linked business models.
Renewable energy, distributed energy, infrastructure and businesses supporting productive economic activity.
Businesses improving access, affordability or quality across healthcare and other essential services.
Digital platforms, business technology and technology-enabled services with scalable commercial and impact potential.
We are sector-flexible where there is a credible business model, clear growth potential and demonstrable economic or social impact.
