Funding the
founders the world
overlooked
REJI Fund invests in racialised and marginalised entrepreneurs across Europe — providing capital, networks, and support to those systematically excluded from traditional funding.
Where do you fit?
I’m a founder
You’re building a business and looking for capital, mentorship, and a network that understands your journey.
I’m an investor
You’re a funder, foundation, or corporate looking to deploy capital into underserved markets with real impact.
I want to donate
You want to directly support founders and the REJI Fund mission through a one-off or recurring donation.
The funding
gap is
real.
Less than 0.5% of venture capital in Europe reaches founders from racialised backgrounds — despite representing a growing share of the entrepreneurial population.
Structural bias, limited networks, and a near-total absence of culturally competent investors have created a gap that mainstream funds have failed to close.
REJI Fund exists to change that. Not through charity — through investment, partnership, and systemic change.
