| Tanda is a fintech startup working to revolutionize access to essential digital financial services for MSME's across Africa.Through Tanda, micro-retailers can not only access inventory credit, but also become access points for essential services such as Airtime, Utility payments, M-banking & Insurance for their customers.For thelongest time, shopkeepers have been the cradle for African communities. They supply over 70% of essential goods, worth over $180 Billion annually across the continent. It comes as a shock that despite their importance to local economies, over 90% of micro-retailers do not have any credit history nor access to financing from Banks or MFI's. Tanda plans to close this financing gap and drive financial inclusion for low income MSME's across the continent. | Seed / Oct 04, 2022 | ||

| Sortd transforms the email Inbox into a set of organized To-Do lists. It brings conversations, tasks and priorities together into one intuitive, visually-organized workspace, that's really easy to use and works right inside Gmail.People live in their Inbox but using it to stay on top of things is a chaotic way to work. Most of us havedeveloped less than desirable workarounds in our efforts to stay on top of email (flagging, marking emails as unread, even emailing ourselves to remember important stuff). The inbox wasn’t meant to be a To-Do list, but it's clear that email is not going away any time soon.Sortd is an 'Email 2.0' venture that re-thinks email and brings a new approach to the way people work. | Venture - Series Unknown / Jul 30, 2019 | ||

| Globally, there are 39 million blind people. An estimated 80% of all blindness is preventable or curable, which means that there are in excess of 30 million people around the world who have lost their sight unnecessarily.In the majority of cases, blindness can be prevented or cured through simple, effective and inexpensive procedures likecataract operations. So the main cause of blindness isn’t a lack of treatment options, but rather a lack of access to decent healthcare. | $83K / Seed / Apr 10, 2018 | ||
