Hakkında
At Hummingbird, we believe in the power of diverse teams to develop scalable technology innovations and achieve outsized impact and financial returns. We believe that local and female founders are best positioned to unlock opportunities for women and marginalized populations in Africa. As a gender-lens investor, Hummingbird will focus on bringing a holistic approach to business practices that promote women’s economic participation, leadership and entrepreneurship. As an investor in technology innovations, Hummingbird will contribute to the sustainable development of the continent by leapfrogging growth obstacles. By filling this critical funding gap, Hummingbird seeks to prove the commercial viability and replicability of this capital and support model. Hummingbird knows that its only through crowding in those with more financial might (both private and public investors) towards a shared mission of addressing inequality and promoting empowerment will we truly achieve systemic impact.
