Meet The
Team

In other words, weʼve been there. Our combined expertise and experience make
us understand the opportunities in the space and empathize with
entrepreneurial challenges.

Built on experience

We have built a team with deep and varied experience that has
founded, built, invested in, and advised a range of different
businesses across Africa from dynamic start-ups to established
enterprises. We use this experience to support your business across
many different areas from start-up funding and management to
growth and scaling.

We Specialize In

Like you, we're still learning. If we don't have the answers, we often
know those that do. Our model is based on our relationships and
we stay close to both previous and current investors,
entrepreneurs, and experts in their fields who we can call upon.
Having a strong network of proven entrepreneurs and industry
specialists allows us to support our companies both informally and formally.

Ajim Capital is built on a simple belief

We build tomorrow.

We are the people.

We are the country

We run our own systems
