Innovation. Accelerated.
We back deep tech companies building from Africa and the Middle East outward — backing founders developing breakthrough technologies that make the world's critical systems more productive, resilient, and resource efficient.
The hardest industrial, agricultural, and security problems are concentrated in markets the venture map has mostly skipped. We think that gap is the opportunity: real engineering, applied to real infrastructure, for founders who build where the problem actually lives.
We back teams with technical depth solving physical, not purely digital, problems — hardware, systems, and infrastructure that are hard to copy.
Africa and the Middle East hold enormous latent demand for industrial and agricultural technology, with far less capital chasing it.
We favor technology with defensible, multi-market applications — commercial and strategic — that holds value through cycles.
We write meaningful first checks and stay hands-on from pre-seed through growth, not just at the round that looks safe.
Every bottleneck we underwrite reduces to one of three vulnerabilities — what a region has to import, what its environment threatens, and what puts its people at risk.
Building the technology that Africa and the Middle East own, manufacture and control.
Chips, industrial systems and intelligence designed locally, for local conditions.
Deploying precision agriculture, climate intelligence and clean industrial systems.
Focused on the regions facing the most severe resource stress and climate exposure on earth.
Securing people, communities and critical infrastructure.
From autonomous border systems to AI diagnostics — using technology built locally for the environments where it will be used.
Where we look for companies, and the terrain we know best.
