What Investors Say

Managing Partner of White Hibiscus Capital
LEAD INVESTOR
Invested $25,000 this round
I invested in Untapped Global because I strongly believe in the vision and the Team that Jim Chu has put up for Untapped. The domain expertise, the industry and local experiences of the Team and the synergy between them are a great plus in delivering value to the investors. The frontier markets like those in Africa, Latin America and Asia, with a $5.2T opportunity is a clear market that had room for growth and rapid scaling, when one considers Untapped Global's strategy of investing safely and profitably via their Smart Asset Financing model. On the impact side, it's unbelievable the level of impact the investments from Untapped Global are having within their geographical locations at present, with such little funding in such a short time. With a lot of help from Limited Partners, like myself and you, I believe they have the capacity and the experience to do much more, safely and profitably.
