Investment Philosophy
Fastest Growing Market
Africa is the world’s fastest-growing market - yet founders still lack access to early-stage capital. Africa faces some of the world’s most challenging problems.
Opportunities
These challenges are Africa's opportunities. We believe entrepreneurship and market-creating innovation are some of the biggest drivers of global economic growth. It drives job creation and better quality of life.
Support
Ajim Capital is an early-stage fund that provides startups in Africa financing from Pre-seed to Seed. We support founders from the earliest days with hands-on strategic advice and access to our global network of investors and experts.

Why Invest in Africa?
Africa’s mix of economic growth, population growth, tech adoption, and digitalization is unmatched by other markets.
Sustained Economic Growth
Africa is a greenfield market, with most countries expecting 3% - 6% projected annual growth over the next decade.

A Young and Growing Population
