Helping entrepreneurs structure projects that attract serious capital
Helping entrepreneurs structure projects that attract serious capital
Providing funding and mentorship to ambitious entrepreneurs in AI, fintech, biotech, and emerging technologies.
Turning your vision into an industry-defining company.
Giving you access to top-tier advisors, networks, and industry-leading expertise.
Making sure underrepresented founders, especially women, get the support they deserve.
At Capstone Viability, we coach African entrepreneurs to transform their ideas and businesses into bankable projects that meet the standards of banks, investors, and development finance institutions.
Our process is not theoretical. It’s grounded in decades of experience with African markets and emerging economies, where opportunities are abundant but capital flows only to well-prepared projects.
The Entrepreneur’s Journey with Capstone Viability:
You begin by submitting your project application. Our expert jury reviews your file and identifies what is missing or weak from a bankability perspective — financial modeling, governance, compliance, or risk structure.
What you gain: Clear feedback on where your project stands today.
Through guided coaching sessions, you’ll learn:
What you gain: The skills, tools, and confidence to present your project at a global standard.
Once coached, you resubmit your project. Our jury evaluates again and invites you to an interview, where you present your improved project and respond to questions as you would in front of real investors or credit committees.
What you gain: Real-world practice in defending your project, with constructive feedback.
After the interview, you’ll either:
What you gain: Either immediate investor-readiness or a clear roadmap to get there.
