TAG, an independent advisory and investment management firm, has deepened its commitment to Africa’s economic transformation by partnering with development finance institutions and ecosystem enablers to support small and medium-sized enterprises and creatives across the continent.

In a statement made available to our correspondent on Tuesday, the firm, which operates with a focus on scalable and sustainable impact, is providing practical business support and strategic investment guidance to high-potential African ventures.

TAG’s hands-on approach includes services such as embedded chief financial officers, financial structuring, policy engagement, and ecosystem mapping, all tailored to help African businesses scale confidently and sustainably in complex markets.

Speaking on the firm’s mission, Managing Principal at TAG, Fiyin Ogunlesi, said the goal is to bridge structural and financial gaps that hinder growth for African entrepreneurs.

“As advisory partners to Africa’s SMEs and creatives, we believe creativity and entrepreneurship are powerful economic drivers,” Ogunlesi said.

“But too many still face barriers to funding, ownership, and sustainability. Our mission is to close those gaps through practical support, from investment readiness to CFO services and global partnerships, helping our clients turn potential into lasting impact,” he added.

According to the statement, TAG is already working behind the scenes with a number of emerging and high-impact ventures, including The Plug, Azuwa Studios, Peninsular Manufacturing, Ororo Waste Management, and the Challenge Fund for Youth Employment, among others.

It added that the firm recently launched a Nigeria-focused Afrobeats Economy Report, highlighting investment opportunities in the music industry and broader creative ecosystem.

“We are partnering with the next regional champions across verticals. It’s about making Africa more global and more investable — one bold venture at a time,” Ogunlesi added.
