WHERE START-UPS TAKE OFF
We accelerate emerging market start-ups by investing expertise, experience, services and capital – to yield maximum returns for our investors.
“When you first see that huge chunk of metal parked on the tarmac, it’s hard to believe it will actually fly. But when you reduce drag, optimize lift and increase thrust…it can take you right across the globe. Start-ups are pretty similar.”

Futureneers™ Founder and Pilot
FUTURENEERS™ is an early stage Venture Capital investment holding company and start-up accelerator that enables Investors to benefit from a diversified mix of opportunities, predominantly in emerging market start-ups. Within the South African investment landscape, one of our key differentiators is international growth – facilitated through our unique Global Bridge advisory network.
With the aid of key service providers, we not only offer post-investment incubation and acceleration to our portfolio start-up companies, we deliver essential growth support services that ensure streamlined sustainability.
Besides rapid Minimum Viable Product (MVP) development and business analytics, these service providers specialise in sales-, brand-, social media-, digital- and influence marketing that extend far beyond the standard back-office support offerings.
The Management Team are primarily start-up people, thus their approach to management and investment is neither institutionalised nor inflexible, while our Advisory Board has been carefully selected to complement the Management Team and Investment Committee. Many are recognised globally as true innovators, bringing a new dimension to the FUTURENEERS™ programme.
