Time for Faith Driven Investors to invest in great Faith Driven Fund Managers in Africa. According to the Economist: 80% of the world's poor will be in Africa by 2030 0.5% of the world's private equity inflows in 2024 went to Africa. According to the New Testament: ...."to take care of the poor, the very thing we were EAGER to do". Gal 2:10 The best gift we can give someone is a JOB and the HOPE that comes from the Gospel. It's time for us all to consider the world class Faith Driven Investors that lead some of Africa's greatest PE firms. As Christ followers, if we are indeed EAGER, and we do believe in the power of the marketplace to lift nations out of poverty, we need to do better than 0.5%. Kaleo Ventures, Sango Capital, African Capital Alliance, Future Africa, Ventures Platform Fund, Aruwa Capital Management, HealthCap Africa, CRE Venture Capital, Heron Capital, Verdant Frontiers Fintech Fund, Talanton, SAAD Investment Holdings. I've been VERY impressed by the leaders of each of these funds and it's been a great joy to invest alongside them. Their commitment to excellence, their track records, their deal flow......and their faith. Not sure how to choose? I'm happy to share more about how I look at these funds, or better yet, since he's an investment professional AND RIA, Consider reaching out to Tim Macready and the team he leads Brightlight
