CREATING a More Inclusive Future

Samata Capital accelerates equal access to capital and opportunity for
talented entrepreneurs in emerging markets.
We intentionally invest in gender diverse teams with high-growth
concepts in East and West Africa that are committed to
innovation, inclusion and impact.

Shifting the Paradigm

Despite the growing body of evidence demonstrating that diverse and inclusive companies are more innovative, profitable and sustainable, they continue to lack access to capital and opportunity. The challenge is compounded for women – 70% of female-led companies globally lack access to the financing necessary to ensure ongoing growth and development.

Samata Capital’s gender lens approach aims to disrupt the accepted business paradigm by investing in scalable, sustainable businesses that advance opportunities for women and promote gender diversity and inclusion. We do this by providing access to the financial, social and intellectual capital they need to scale.
