You’ve put in the work. You’ve built something real, something that has the potential to change your industry, your community, maybe even the world. But now, you’ve hit a wall. Growth requires capital, and the doors of traditional financing seem to be closing faster than they open. You need a partner who believes in your vision as much as you do.
At Phase One Associates (POA), we do more than write cheques. We roll up our sleeves and walk the journey with you, providing funding, expertise, and the connections that will propel your business forward.

You’ve developed a solution that could transform the market, but you’re stuck at the starting line. Investors want traction, banks want collateral, and bootstrapping can only take you so far.
We get it. That’s why POA invests in high-potential startups, not just with capital but with mentorship, industry networks, and business development support. Our investment size ranges from $50,000 to $200,000, supporting startups with a proven Minimum Viable Product (MVP), scalable and disruptive business models, and a focus on high-growth sectors such as fintech, agritech, clean energy, e-commerce, and health tech. Beyond capital, we back the entrepreneurs behind these ideas, helping refine their vision, navigate challenges, and accelerate growth.

Your business is thriving. Customers love what you do. Demand is growing. But when you approach traditional lenders, they tell you you’re too risky. Private equity firms say you’re too small. You’re caught in the middle.
That’s where POA steps in. We offer growth capital designed to fit your needs, helping you expand operations, enter new markets, and invest in technology. Our investment size ranges from $200,000 to $2 million, targeting profitable companies with annual revenues between $1 million and $10 million in high-growth sectors such as manufacturing, agribusiness, logistics, energy, and financial services.

It’s not just about money. It’s about having the right partners at the table. Partners who open doors, create opportunities, and drive long-term success.
We invest alongside you, ensuring shared success through equity-based partnerships. Our market expansion support helps businesses leverage POA’s networks to scale across Africa and beyond. With access to cutting-edge technology and innovation partnerships, we help businesses enhance efficiency and customer experience.
At POA, we see potential where others see obstacles. Let’s unlock the capital you need to scale, succeed, and lead in Africa’s dynamic markets.
