As female entrepreneurs and operators, we understand these businesses and know too well that women entrepreneurs are often under-represented, under-funded, and under-supported. A lack of investor diversity leads to a lack of investment in women.
LendHer Capital’s dynamic team combines experience founding, operating, and advising businesses in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Building strong female-led businesses doesn’t only require access to capital, but also access to hands-on support.
We focus on the following key areas to help our entrepreneurs reach catalytic growth.
We engage in a fast credit assessment and loan disbursement process to enable entrepreneurs to put capital to work quickly.
We provide high potential local female entrepreneurs with direct investment at competitive interest rates to support the growth of their businesses.
We deliver hands-on support to tackle challenges and enable expansion. Key support areas include financial management, operational efficiency, and people management.
We offer long-term support for business growth through follow-on investments or strategic introductions to our network of later-stage investors.
