OUR TRIBE

Who we are

We are outdoor enthusiasts building African climate solutions.

 

Our team is composed of mission driven, experienced individuals that have been focused on Africa climate tech across operating, investing & acceleration.

 

We are “boots on the ground” business builders, active investors and community creators driven to protect what we love– and help others do the same.

Our culture

Our team of action, in action.

 

From pre-work “rise and shine” runs, to brainstorm beers on the beach, to tackling ultramarathons together, our mission lies at the heart of both what we do, and how we do it.

Our people

We believe you can love nature and put your mind to work.

 

You can have a PhD and go dirtbag in the woods. You can rock at your day job and free dive into stillness. Our people have fun, do good, and thrive in beautiful spaces.
