Portfolio/Investments/Energy

We have made early stage and growth stage venture fund investments in exceptional renewable energy, oil and gas and natural resource exploration companies in the African region, which will contribute to a more profitable and efficient energy landscape in power deficient countries in Africa through their innovation and market place expertise.

Addressing climate change and CO₂reduction is important to us. We invest in companies with a long-term view and don’t flinch at shifting attitudes toward the global demand for clean energy.
