NURTURING OUR BETTER SELVES IN BUSINESS

Amoo is a new inclusive FinTech in London UK, supporting entrepreneurs to overcome their funding challenges

Our Goal

Amoo is a financial services marketplace for SMEs. Our ambition is to contribute to the removal of obstacles faced by entrepreneurs when raising funds, by being an inclusive platform. Tackling the gender gap issue in fundraising is one of the actions we have undertaken in this respect.

We aim to support business women and female tech entrepreneurs with their financing needs. This may be in the form of equity, convertibles, project finance, loans, etc. The problem is that today’s stewards of capital do not fairly allocate funds to female owned companies.
