Who we are
WINVA.NET is the private platform that prepares African SMEs for financing and connects them with qualified investors.
No crowdfunding. No public offering. No investment product. A premium, selective and confidential service — built for the Missing Middle segment, where institutional capital and African entrepreneurship need to meet.
Our role is unique: we are the connection infrastructure the market was missing.
Our ambition is continental. Our execution is phased. We began with Côte d'Ivoire, where we have the deepest local expertise, and we selectively expand our scope as qualified opportunities emerge across the continent.
Our mission
In West Africa, SMEs represent more than 90% of companies and are the primary driver of job creation. Yet fewer than 20% of them access formal credit.
It isn't a lack of capital or a lack of projects — it's a lack of connection infrastructure.
WINVA bridges this gap by preparing SMEs for financing and connecting them to qualified investors, in a private, rigorous and confidential setting.
