Douglas R.

Professional background

Business Investor - Private Equity Fund Raiser - Property Fund Raiser.

An entrepreneur, a visionary partner, and a collaborative friend who is impact-driven and genuine but also compassionate. As a businessman who has grown, turned around, and founded various businesses in Africa, I will always be open to new opportunities there.

In business, I create value and improve the economic well-being and quality of life of my friends, investors, partners, and co-stakeholders. I do this mostly through innovative strategic choices in funding, management, and technology approaches, all while embracing a Kaizen mindset.

Professionally, I hold a CA (SA) qualification from KPMG Johannesburg, with multi-country experience in starting and growing businesses across diverse industries in eight African countries and Australia.
