Who We Are

Nealcorp is a venture capital firm assisting the exceptional entrepreneurs who are designing and executing innovative business models to profitably serve Africa’s aspiring mass market.

These start-ups are the catalysts for innovation, accountability, efficiency and the accumulation of wealth for the common good.

While we are managing a pool of capital, we do not think of ourselves primarily as fund managers. The fun and focus of our work is partnering with entrepreneurs to help bring ideas to life and multiply their impact.


ABOUT US

WE DEPLOY DISTINCTIVE CAPABILITIES TO SUPPORT EXCEPTIONAL ENTREPRENEURS WHO ARE CREATING AND GROWING BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESSES IN AFRICA.

LOCAL PRESENCE

From our base in Nairobi, we are close to the businesses and teams we back, and intimately familiar with the markets they serve and the challenges they face.

DECISIVE & DIRECT

Time and money are inevitably in short supply for the start-up. We are investors who can move quickly. And if we decide not to invest we’ll give constructive feedback right away.

FLEXIBLE WITH FIREPOWER

Nealcorp has multi-round investors with flexibility and firepower. We are prepared to invest as little as $1,000 in an unproven business model with high potential. And Nealcorp can fuel the rapid growth stage of the business through multiple capital rounds with up to $100,000.

PATIENT

We understand that it takes time to build a significant business from scratch in this region. Nealcorp provides support that is tailored to the company’s stage of development.

COMMERCIAL

We are a team of experienced practitioners in search of businesses where positive social impact for lower-income earners is a result of commercial success, not an end in itself.
