EHA Impact Ventures

Overview

EHA Impact Ventures is a philanthropic impact investing enterprise dedicated to supporting early-stage, high-impact, women-led businesses across Africa. Unlike traditional business financing, EIV offers flexible and innovative funding options paired with high-quality, local, shared business resources to ensure business growth and success. Their mission is to improve the wealth and health of African women, their families, and communities. EIV's investment philosophy centers on providing founder-friendly capital to African women entrepreneurs, prioritizing impact returns over financial returns. They support companies in ways that do not take ownership away from the founders, thus preserving African ownership. EIV's value proposition includes a proven capacity as a high-value implementer and enabler, access to extensive data gathering and analysis systems, local knowledge through a leadership team with extensive experience in Africa, and networks that support portfolio companies with political and business connections needed to be successful. EIV's impact is evident in their investments, such as EHA Clinics, a network of primary healthcare providers in Nigeria; Ananya Health, a company developing a portable cryoablation device for pre-screening cervical cancer; Amayi Foods, a producer of nutritious and affordable African cooking condiments; Blueroomcare, a digital mental health platform; and Moppet Foods, a producer of affordable, fortified cereals for infants and toddlers. These investments demonstrate EIV's commitment to fostering sustainable growth and impact in the health and nutrition sectors across Africa.
