About
ARV invests in pre-seed and seed East African tech companies with unique datasets and core competencies in digital and financial infrastructure.
Investment approach
- Thesis
- The next decade of African value creation will accrue not to thin adoption-layer plays, but to the innovators who own the underlying infrastructure — the datasets, the intelligence, the autonomous capabilities. With that conviction, we invest in early-stage East African tech startups, across sectors, with such core competencies in digital infrastructure. Building infrastructure is hard, but it yields the most durable returns and creates invisible, life-changing impact over the long run.Source (opens in a new tab)
