West African private equity for established businesses
A private equity firm investing growth capital in mid-sized businesses across West Africa, with a portfolio spanning financial services, education, healthcare and consumer sectors.
Use when
You run an established West African business with real profitability seeking growth or expansion capital.
Skip when
You are a venture-stage technology startup — this is the wrong instrument.
Private equity rather than venture — expect cheque sizes and diligence appropriate to established, profitable businesses, not startups. Has co-invested alongside LeapFrog and other institutional investors. Listed here because founders often mistake growth-stage PE for a late-stage VC option; the terms and expectations differ substantially.
