Use when
You are a pre-seed or seed fintech looking for a first institutional cheque and hands-on help getting to Series A readiness.
Skip when
You are outside fintech or raising above about US$250,000 as a first cheque. This is an early-stage specialist, not a lead for a large round.
Status (24 Sep 2026): actively deploying, US$30 million target with US$10.9 million raised and a further US$6 million from the IFC. Cheques of roughly US$100,000 to US$250,000 at pre-seed and seed. Based in Morocco and Uganda, which is unusual coverage: most pan-African funds are run from Lagos, Nairobi or Cape Town. Approach through the firm's site.
