A clearing house for ideas & capital

Our mission

We seek to provide a clearing house for capital and innovation to help power private sector growth in Africa. Our business is based on using the power of ideas to generate growth and improve human lives. Our ethos is to balance the rewards for business endeavours towards those who produce ideas and innovate. Our approach is to find the best people for each job, leveraging our knowledge, experience and relationships across the sectors we operate in. 

What we do

The Situation Hub uses our in-house team and global network of experts to provide the best possible advice and support to help businesses grow in an increasingly challenging external environment 

We identify small and medium sized businesses and projects with growth opportunities and match them with private sector or development finance investment. We then work with these businesses and communities to improve their skills and gain better access to technology and markets where necessary. This often includes supporting targeted interventions and investments along the entire value chain. For more mature businesses, we provide additional support with financial and actuarial analysis, bespoke insurance and capital markets’ solutions and human resource development. 

As businesses around the world contend with unprecedented external shocks, The Sit Hub leverages our teams’ proven frontline experience in intelligence analysis, risk and disaster management and Enterprise Risk Management to help companies improve their resilience to navigate natural disasters, pandemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest and political and regulatory risk.
