Success stories from existing platform members

Novan MaharahajeDirector, Corporate Finance Advisory, Mauritius

For our clients we can fine-tune our targeted investor list, thereby streamlining the process.

Prior to sharing information with other users, a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is executed. This process can often be time-consuming but Orbitt removes the operational barrier and eases information sharing in an environment where confidentiality and privacy are upheld.

Elia TimotheoFounder and Managing Director, Tanzania

Without Orbitt’s services we wouldn’t be as far down the line as we are now.

We are currently in discussions with two investment firms, one in Tanzania and one in Mauritius. The platform helped us set up meetings and the Orbitt team followed up before and after.

Richard MillerDirector, PIB Insurance

We’re really impressed with the quality and volume of leads that land on our desk.

From a pure cost-perspective, Orbitt is a really efficient way for us to generate new business across the continent. On top of that we’ve been able to grow our network and profile with their tools and service.

George PeckHead of Desk, UK

To date we’ve acquired good business from the platform

Monex has been using Orbitt for over two years now. As we grow our Africa client base, we are looking forward to generating more leads through the platform.

Aboubakar SamassiSenior Relationship Manager, Côte d’Ivoire

By being part of the Orbitt ecosystem we see more investment opportunities with very little extra effort.

For example, even though we think we know the Zambian market reasonably well, we were presented with a lead that may not have come to us through a standard intermediary or transaction adviser.

Vincent LeeBusiness Development Director, Singapore

Orbitt helped us reach out to companies with whom we had no previous contact.

I didn’t have much hope when we first heard about the platform. But the technology quickly helped us develop a pan-African trading client and the platform has opened up a whole new Africa-Asia trading corridor for us.

Nnennia EjebeInvestment Principle, Ghana

We’ve been able to build a network of boutique advisers and generate more targeted leads.

With the support of Orbitt’s team, despite a complex transaction, we were able to communicate effectively with an adviser and issue our terms directly.

With over 2,000 active users, our investors & lenders, corporates and service providers are connecting and doing business digitally
