Cascador’s USD 2MLN Catalytic Fund

Cascador targets scalable Nigerian enterprises with clear paths to growth and job creation, who first go through the Cascador program to gain access to investment. The program for mid-stage entrepreneurs has supported six successful cohorts of African entrepreneurs through a unique blend of education, self-discovery, mentoring, pitch training and personalized advisory support.

The Cascador program is an intensive, in-depth examination of leadership skills, business model, fiscal and operational strength, and value proposition by veteran faculty. The program includes six months of mentorship post-program to ensure fellows can apply what they learn in the real world. In mobility, the focus is on models that expand access, improve productivity and enable asset ownership. Drive45 operates a rent to own platform for cars that converts monthly payments into ownership over three to six years, addressing Nigeria’s affordability gap for both corporates and individuals.
