What is the Investor Circle?

The Investor Circle (IC) is an initiative set up by DMA to better shape the future of investment in frontier markets and the global south.

This invitation-only group, delivers market-entry services and early intelligence on bankable projects, for frontier and emerging economies.

Why Investor Circle?

In short to do more for investment in emerging markets and the global south, better and faster.

The good will generated at DMA investment summits is vast but it's always a challenge to keep the conversation going and keep everyone focused between these summits.

In response the IC has been set up to continue these conversations year round, year after year leveraging the expertise and knowledge of our network to fully release the potential for investment.

Why I should join the IC?

As a patron of the Investor Circle (IC) you will get early access to key market intelligence, broaden your network of key government and industry players as well as being able to discuss with our team important issues and barriers to investment through our regular briefings and digital round tables.
