Seize the Opportunity in East Africa

While misconceptions persist about East Africa’s economy, the reality is that small and medium sized enterprises drive 70% of new job creation globally, yet face a $5.7 trillion funding gap. This massive shortfall presents a powerful investment opportunity for both financial returns and transformative impact.

The Momentum Fund bridges equity capital needs for high-impact, job-creating companies. By fueling accelerated job creation and profitable growth, the Fund enables investors to empower talented Africans with meaningful work while achieving attractive financial returns.
