Summary
The company describes itself as an alternative investment platform that deploys accredited investor capital into Kenya's microfinance economy, funding short-term microloans to small business owners and entrepreneurs through its Kenyan Operations. According to the release, InNova has raised more than $88 million from over 1,000 active investors over the past four years, building on eight years of capital raising in the United States. The boilerplate in the same release states a figure of more than $75 million over the same period, a difference the release does not explain. The release also states that figures related to Kenyan Operations are self-reported and have not been independently verified by InNova Global Fund.
At its exhibit, InNova team members will meet with accredited investors, financial professionals and current investors. Chief Executive Officer Micah Asay said the firm's commitment is to "transparency, disciplined risk management, and connecting American capital with entrepreneurs in Kenya." Rudolfo Beltran, Vice President, Head of Capital Acquisition, said that "demand for capital in Kenya continues to outpace supply" and that the firm offers accredited investors a way to diversify beyond traditional markets. Attendees may schedule one-on-one meetings in advance through the Whova App.
The release notes that any offering is made only to verified accredited investors through a Private Placement Memorandum, that stated rates are not guaranteed, and that all investments involve risk, including potential loss of principal.
