Profile
Tana Africa Capital is an evergreen Africa focused investment company founded in 2011 by the Oppenheimer family and Temasek Holdings.
Through the medium of capital and business-building support, Tana aims to build African companies for generations to come. In doing so, Tana is able to draw on the rich heritage, vast experience and extensive networks of its founding shareholders, as well as the on-the-ground African knowledge and operating experience of its management team.
Like its namesake, Ethiopia’s Lake Tana (the source of the Blue Nile), Tana aims to serve as a fount of development, leaving an enduring, tangible and positive legacy on the businesses which it supports.
