Happy Workers’ Day to the builders, doers, and changemakers powering growth across Africa. At Alitheia Capital, we celebrate the people behind every growing business and stronger economy.

Ten years ago, we co-founded @AlitheiaIDF on a conviction that gender-smart investing in Africa would outperform. The evidence is now in.

This Easter, we celebrate renewal, resilience, and the power of new beginnings. At Alitheia Capital, we remain committed to building a more inclusive and prosperous future. Wishing you and your loved ones a season filled with peace, joy, and renewed hope.

As we mark Eid al-Fitr, we celebrate a season of reflection, generosity, and shared prosperity. Eid Mubarak to our partners, investors, and communities. May this season inspire renewed purpose and collective progress. #EidMubarak #AlitheiaCapital

The report shows it’s not a pipeline issue, but power. Only 33% of Investment Committee members are women (19% in $1B+ firms). Flip to majority-female ICs → investment in women-led firms jumps 6x. Takeaway: Intentional capital + diverse ICs = higher returns & inclusion.
