A focused leadership, supported by local experts.
We deliberately keep our leadership lean. The Managing Partner owns every engagement end-to-end and works alongside vetted local experts on the ground in each target market.
Leadership
Vincent Oluoch
Managing Partner
With more than ten years of in-market business development experience across African markets, Vincent has personally led engagements for 84+ governmental agencies and private organisations — connecting manufacturers and financial firms with qualified distributors, agents and intermediaries.
Every client engagement is owned at partner level. There are no junior hand-offs, no account managers between you and the work. You get senior judgement on every distributor screened, every intermediary approached and every report delivered.
