Metis Capital is a privately owned single-family office run by Nigerian entrepreneurs Hakeem and Myma Belo-Osagie, who combine deep telecoms/finance operating experience with prominent legal and regulatory expertise rather than the typical ex-banker/ex-consultant background of most VCs. The firm positions itself as a bridge to "bring the best of Africa to the world and the world to Africa," focusing on companies that can connect Africa to global capital and markets while actively using the family's political and diplomatic access to convene global investors around African policy-makers.
