HI, I’M EUNICE
A LITTLE OF MY STORY
It all started with a journey driven by my ambition to make a significant impact in Africa.
I’m a 2x founder who previously led a tech startup from homeless into a multi-million dollar business. I then launched a $10M Africa-focused fund with no Ivy League degree, wealthy family, or VC/PC experience.
This space is dedicated to sparking your interest in exploring investment opportunities in the African market!
With Ajim Capital, my mission is to facilitate access to funding and support African startups in scaling into billion-dollar companies.
I am motivated by the stories of talented African founders and determined to contribute to their success, giving back to the continent that has given me so much. Investing in startups in Africa is not just a good deal; it's an opportunity to unlock untapped potential and foster transformative growth in emerging markets.
Africa is transforming rapidly, and being part of its growth story can be financially rewarding and personally fulfilling.

I didn’t always have this business: the investors, the founders, the millions in investments…
In fact, I'm an entrepreneur with a story that's probably not so different from yours. Growing up in Cameroon, I always wanted to be my own boss. Even as a kid, I hustled by buying candy in bulk and selling it to my classmates. School wasn't really my thing, so I raced through it, graduating high school at 15 and college at 19. While studying in the US, I started a few businesses to pay for my education.
After a brief stint at Apple, I realized the typical corporate 9-5 life wasn't for me. Inspired by tech moguls like Uber and Airbnb, I founded DataGig, a platform connecting data science professionals with small businesses. But let me tell you, the startup journey wasn't a walk in the park. I faced homelessness, lost friends, and encountered countless obstacles. But guess what? I never gave up! Eventually, I found an investor who believed in me, and we built a successful startup together, raising millions in funding. Fast forward to the pandemic in 2020, when everything went haywire. I convinced my co-founders to hire software engineers from Africa, and that's when I saw a whole new set of challenges. But those challenges sparked my mission to bridge the funding gap for African startups.
So, I launched a venture capital fund to invest in and support hundreds of incredible companies across the continent. Together, we're rewriting the rules and making dreams come true. Join me on this journey of empowerment and opportunity!
