E3 Capital is a leading investor in early-stage companies developing innovative business models that are digitised, decentralised, and decarbonised. With a combined investment experience of over 40 years, we are uniquely positioned to help companies grow and scale, without compromising sustainability.

We believe the transition to a climate-resilient economy presents significant opportunities for innovation, and sustainable value creation. By partnering with ambitious founders, we help scale businesses that support economic growth while not replicating the emission pathways of developed markets.

We aim to be the catalyst for Africa’s low-carbon economy. We focus on tech-enabled companies in the Seed – Series A stage. We position ourselves with an active value additive lens; and prefer rounds where we can lead, bringing in like-minded co-investors from across the world.

Our Vision

Africa’s economic growth and climate transition are deeply interconnected. The continent is at an inflection point, there is a real opportunity to leapfrog carbon-intensive systems entirely.

Our vision is to help shape a future where businesses can grow, communities can prosper, and economic development is decoupled from carbon-intensive pathways.

Our Mission

There is a persistent gap in capital for businesses addressing climate and development challenges, particularly in underserved African markets. Our role is to bridge that gap.

We deploy tailored equity capital to help businesses execute, scale responsibly and navigate the operational realities of emerging markets.
