This week our partner Lisa G. Thomas was at SuperReturn Africa and spoke on a panel on - 'DEI: Breaking barriers'. At ATG Samata we intentionally invest in female-led and gender diverse teams that are committed to innovation, inclusion and impact. We understand that diverse teams bring a richer diversity of thought that views opportunities in a unique way and mitigates risk which creates an arbitrage opportunity. As a result, we have developed a proprietary DEI screening and due diligence tool that enables us to assess a company's strengths and weaknesses, prioritize deal flow and limit risks. We also work with our portfolio companies post-investment to co-create action plans in order to scale DEI in the business culture as the company grows. #dei #genderlensinvesting #investinginAfrica #venturecapital
