Venture capitalist?? No...but I know a few Private Equity Firms.....but most, like to buy existing companies.....change management...infuse capital...grow the company 4r 3 years or so...then do an IPP (Initial Private Placement) ......OR even sell their stake in the company.

They prefer ICT,Tourism and Manufacturing especially Food processing.

But you have to have a tight busniess plan.

But try Business PARTNERS iNTERNATIONAL..they are good because apart from loans they also do mentorship.

You can also talk to me of list.......as well

Hi Skunks,

Has anyone dealt with venture capital firms/individuals in Kenya? Are there firms out there who do equity funding as opposed to traditional loans structure?
