"We believe these businesses are not risks, they are opportunities most investors have missed."
Sayuni Capital was built on the conviction that the $42 billion financing gap facing women in Africa is not a reflection of business quality it is a reflection of structural bias in how capital has historically been deployed.
By combining flexible debt capital with hands-on business support, we are proving that investing in Africa’s overlooked entrepreneurs is both the right thing to do and the smart investment decision.
