The Digital Me
Insights on my mission to bridge the gap between venture capital, impact investing & economic justice.
Abdul is a veteran operator and serial entrepreneur who has successfully navigated multiple roles: from financial advisor to software engineer to technology executive at two Fortune 50 companies. As a 4x founder, he's driven two companies to successful exits, giving him a unique perspective on both sides of the investment table.
As Founding Partner of Shujaa Capital, he leads a pre-seed fund transforming the SaaS landscape across Africa and the US. Through Ajo Angels, his investment education and community platform, he's democratizing access to startup investing and knowledge - creating a new generation of informed investors from historically excluded communities.
Abdul is tackling the $100 billion funding gap facing Black and Brown founders head-on. By combining hands-on operational expertise with intentional capital deployment, he's building a cross-continental ecosystem that doesn't just write checks - it creates lasting pathways to wealth generation, connecting underestimated founders to smart capital, strategic support, and a powerful network spanning the US and Africa.
