Meaningful Investments in Digital Economies
Caribou Digital Investments is a venture and advisory company, providing capital and other support to early stage digital companies in emerging markets.
APPROACH
APPROACH
We want to demonstrate what we believe is meaningful investment in digital economies. For us, this means (a) investing in companies in alignment with our evolving views about inclusive markets and protecting livelihoods, (b) addressing agency and inclusiveness gaps in digital startup founders in terms of both gender and local founder participation, and (c) investing in business models that, in our view, are more sustainable because they bootstrap at least initially and leverage local talent.
