We are a community of makers, creatives, entrepreneurs, founders, investors and CEOs united in our goal to preserve Africa's nature, protect biodiversity and make the continent a safe place for animals. We make rational decisions, work entrepreneurially, 100% transparently and sustainably. And have fun doing it: doing good doesn't have to hurt.
