About Amandla Omnotho
We are the architects of empowerment, forging a future where black-owned businesses in Africa are not just participants, but leaders in the global economy.
Our Mission: The Forge
Our name, Amandla Omnotho, translates to "Economic Power." We chose "The Forge" as our guiding metaphor because it perfectly encapsulates our mission. A forge is a place of intense heat, pressure, and skill, where raw metal is transformed into something strong, purposeful, and valuable.
Similarly, we provide the environment, tools, and connections to hone, strengthen, and connect black-owned businesses. We are a catalyst for transformation, turning potential into power and ideas into impactful enterprises that drive economic growth and create a legacy of prosperity.
