THE GAKPO VENTURE FUND.

A catalyst for transformative
early-stage ventures in Africa.

In the Ewe language, “Gakpo” signifies iron or something truly unbreakable – a testament to strength and resilience. This is the bedrock of the Gakpo Venture Fund.

We are building a portfolio of companies designed for lasting impact, investing in the boldest ideas and most tenacious founders across Africa. Like iron, we seek to forge strong partnerships and build businesses that can withstand challenges and achieve extraordinary, unbreakable growth. Join us in shaping the future for Africa.
