We are an ambitious and dynamic organisation
Driven by our purpose, we think long-term, take calculated risks, innovate, reflect, learn, and adapt appropriately to continuously improve
A diverse portfolio of sectors
Our current portfolio has a mix of sectors that cut across agriculture, agro-processing, manufacturing, and services. This breadth allows us to capture our learning and share knowledge of what works in sector transformation within and outside Gatsby Africa. In addition, we fund and support work in the tea sector which is implemented by The Wood Foundation.
Our organisation is powered by a team of experienced and dedicated professionals, who are based in our offices in Kenya, Tanzania and the UK.
