Seth Muli Programme Director - Allan Gray Makers, Allan and Gill Gray Philanthropies

The Africa Impact Investing Fellowship transformed my theoretical understanding of impact investing into an executable strategy. The AIIF didn't just teach me about impact investing; it equipped me to be a more effective practitioner in the field as a direct output of that journey.

Daniel Kitwa Director, Energy Access Finance, GreenMax Capital Group

I'm already thinking with a more impact-led mindset and a more systems-based mindset, and thinking about how different actions interrelate to achieve the economic impact but also the social and cultural impact that we're trying to see through our work in the creative industries.”
