Investment thesis

Backing African entrepreneurs building the continent's next tech giants

Norrsken22 is backed by unicorn founders from companies including Flutterwave, Klarna, and Skype, alongside the Norrsken Foundation (founded by Klarna co-founder Niklas Adalberth). They provide growth capital and strategic value — not just checks — to founders building scalable, disruptive businesses across Africa.

Core thesis: tech-enabled companies with fintech, market enablement, healthtech, and edtech focus operating across sub-Saharan Africa, positioned for international expansion. GPs are based in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, giving genuine on-the-ground presence in three major markets.
