RESOLVEFUND

Impact that moves
at the speed of the problem.

We're building a new kind of impact engine — one that puts early-stage working capital directly in the hands of entrepreneurs solving our most urgent energy, agriculture, and mobility challenges.

Launching 2026

Our Mission

Revolve every dollar to accelerate a thriving planet.

We're not a fund.
We're a system redesign.

The tools built for Silicon Valley tech companies were never designed for social ventures in Nairobi, Lagos, or Jakarta – where the work is harder, the capital is more expensive, and the access to funds are scarcer. Entrepreneurs deploying solar to replace diesel generators, electric two-wheelers to cut oil dependence, and climate-smart agriculture to feed the next billion have the customers, revenue, and proven demand. What they lack is capital that meets them where they are.

Resolve Fund provides fast, affordable working capital — $200K to $5M — underwritten in weeks, not months, using modern technology and data that actually reflects real risk. We partner to build venture's track record, recycle capital, create local bank partnerships, and onramp these entrepreneurs to deep pools of local finance. Then we do it again – revolving capital and multiplying impact with resolve.

01
Deploy with speed
Digital tools and API-connected financials let us make underwriting decisions in under 30 days. We are the fastest path from application to money in the bank to drive impact these entrepreneurs have ever seen.
02
Recycle capital relentlessly
Repayments don't sit idle. We redeploy into new loans, targeting 90% capital circularity — a flywheel that compounds impact underpinned by a self-sustaining model.
03
Onramp to local markets
Our final revolver converts to a guarantee that unlocks a local bank or larger lender credit line. We're not a lender of last resort. We're a lender of first momentum — and then we hand off to the market.

The Problem We're Solving

Social entrepreneurs aren't failing because their businesses don't work. They're failing because the capital stack wasn't built for them.

It can take 18 months to close a sub-$5M loan across emerging markets. Local banks demand collateral these founders don't have. DFIs won't write checks below $5M. And the perceived risk in these markets is wildly disconnected from actual default rates. We're here to document the difference — and change the market.

How We Work

Principles that guide every decision we make.

Build what doesn't exist yet.
We challenge the default. The right capital stack for climate entrepreneurs in emerging markets hasn't been built — so we're building it.
Move with urgency.
We use modern technology and data to make lending faster, clearer, and fairer. Speed is not a luxury — it is the mission.
Center real-world needs.
We stay close to the entrepreneurs doing the work and the communities they serve. Product decisions flow from the ground up.
Learn in the open.
We share what is real risk and what is perceived risk. Documenting actual performance data is how we change the whole market — not just our own book.
Access is power.
Capital, knowledge, and infrastructure should be reachable — not gatekept. We work to remove every structural barrier between an entrepreneur and the capital they need.
Impact through execution.
We prioritize action that produces measurable outcomes. Ambition matters. Evidence of what works matters more.

We're building something new.
Follow the journey.

We are global – starting in hard markets where capital is needed most to prove that if the model works there, this can work anywhere. We're launching in Kenya and Nigeria with a pipeline of 100+ climate ventures ready for investment. Drop your email below to stay connected as we tackle this problem – with resolve.
