An investment firm that works for women
Rather than changing women-led businesses to fit the system, we seek to change the system
Our 10+ years of experience have helped us identify an overlooked opportunity amongst moderate growth companies. While some may be dismissive of these SMEs as ‘lifestyle’ or ‘micro-businesses’, our experience has revealed that many of these businesses are in fact profitable, cash-flow positive businesses growing at healthy rates.
Fit-for-purpose financing
We’re focusing on debt products, because we believe they’re a better fit for the moderate growth, cash-flow positive businesses that we’re targeting. We are also pioneering an evergreen fund structure to better fit the time horizon and financing needs of our portfolio companies.
Beacon is proud to be a 2X fund and part of the global movement to invest in women.
The “2X Challenge” is a commitment by The G7 Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) to collectively mobilise private sector investments in developing country markets to provide women with improved access to opportunities that enhance economic participation and access.
