Unconventional Capital

Entrepreneurial potential is global, but opportunity is not. Uncap aims to change that. We make seed funding accessible to every good entrepreneur. With our data-driven solution centred on humanizing and democratising the due diligence process, we enable investing in Africa’s bottom-up growth. Through the use of analytics and behavioural science, we are able to conduct hands-off, semi-automated due diligence on thousands of entrepreneurs at a fraction of the usual costs while minimizing the risk of un/conscious bias in the selection process.

We invest following a standardized process using non-financial and financial metrics, giving every entrepreneur the same chance, no matter their location, gender or ability to produce polished pitch decks. Ultimately, this makes our solution scalable to thousands of entrepreneurs, thereby creating trust in a dynamic market. Working remotely is part of our DNA with people based in Munich, Nairobi, Berlin and San Francisco.

We are proud to partner with The Next Billion to provide female entrepreneurs and women-own businesses with access to capital through The Next Billion Impact Fund. Starting in Africa.
