What We Do

Services Designed for Real Outcomes

Every service we offer is built to move the needle — from concept to capital, from strategy to execution, across Africa's priority sectors and markets.

Core Services

Our Four Service Pillars

Strategic Advisory & Market Intelligence

We help governments, investors, and corporates understand where to play, how to win, and what it takes to execute in Africa's complex operating environments. Our intelligence is ground-level, policy-aware, and investment-grade.

Market Entry Strategies Expansion Roadmaps QTO Frameworks Policy Analysis Regulatory Mapping Stakeholder Analysis

Deal Structuring & Investment Readiness

We design the structures that make projects investable. From SPVs to PPPs, we ensure your project is structured to attract the right capital partners — with documentation that meets investor and lender standards.

SPVs & JVs PPP Structures BOT / BOOT Models Bankable Business Cases Funding Packs Investor Decks

Transaction & Partnership Advisory

We navigate the deal table — engaging DFIs, negotiating commercial terms, securing MoUs, and building the anchor partnerships that give projects credibility and momentum. We work at the intersection of public and private interest.

Government Engagement DFI Relations Commercial Negotiations MoUs Off-take Agreements Anchor Partnerships

Execution & Programme Support

We don't disappear after the strategy is done. We provide hands-on implementation oversight, PMO support, and delivery assurance to ensure mandates achieve their intended outcomes with accountability and rigour.

Execution Oversight & Programme Management

Full PMO support, KPI monitoring, milestone tracking, and risk management to ensure your project delivers on its commitments to investors, governments, and communities.
