We are on a mission to get at least one highly educated person in every family.
We finance the higher education of our Student Climbers and develop their employability and entrepreneurial skills. Once they graduate debt-free, they reinvest a percentage of their income in our mission, creating a self-sustaining cycle.
We believe education has the power to transform lives, create social impact, and contribute to economic growth. Our journey started in Malawi, but our future is limitless.

Raising capital.
Our investors include international or national corporations, institutions or individuals. What they all have in common is a demand to be able to achieve a nice and stable return on their investment. We ensure that investors are well informed about the risks and benefits of their investment. Megatrend always contributes financially to each of the cases. Transparency is the keyword behind the strategy of the proposed investment cases available to our clients.
Managing the investment.
On behalf of the investors, Megatrend actively contributes and participates as a board member in each of the investment cases to be able to closely monitor the progress. We produce a clear and easy-to-understand monthly report providing regular information about development, operations and ROI. The average return of investment time is 3-5 years.
Favourable Exit.
The investment is well structured and based on a known exit strategy within 3-7 years. Megatrend undertakes everything related to the process and optimisation of exit to make sure that the investors obtain the highest possible profit in the market. Timing and knowledge is of vital importance for the success. Investors are therefore regularly being presented with the most interesting offerings.

Megatrend is operated by experienced senior investors with a strong knowledge of raising capital, managing organisations and with a solid insight into start-ups. This background is based on a commercial understanding, process optimization and value creation.
