Business model we prefer

We focus on B2B, B2C, and B2G markets, with a strong emphasis on e-commerce, subscription models, freemium services, on-demand offerings, and advertising. If you're looking to connect with a global audience, we particularly highlight e-commerce, subscription, and freemium strategies.

Funds allocation

We're dedicating 60% of the funds to entrepreneurs based in Haiti. Another 30% is set aside for businesses run by the Haitian diaspora. The remaining 10% will go to foreign companies that show a strong potential for high returns on our investment.

Geography approach

We focus on Haitian startups where it is in Haiti or in the diaspora, especially in the United States of America, Canada, France, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Spain and Dominican Republic with some conditions.

Our Strategy

We support founders who are creating businesses in underfunded and developing sectors, tapping into fast-growing opportunities and valuable markets both in Haiti and around the globe.
