About Us

Angel Investing Expertise

GreenBridge Capital was established in 2021, based in London, United Kingdom, as a partnership between four angel investors with a shared common interest and passion for investing in Bangladesh-focused early stage ventures. The partnership has over 60 years of combined experience in areas across diverse industries such as investment management, research, insurance, technology consulting, outsourcing and commodities trading.

Our Vision

Our vision is ambitious, matching the ambitions of the Bangladesh founders that we are meeting and interacting with in-country. Whilst currently building our track record, we hope to be first bridge that individual investors take, into making capital allocations into early stage ventures in Bangladesh - to then progressively scale to take on larger deals and investments. We are set on contributing to not just the story and evolution of the country, but also focusing on attracting the wider community from retail to institutional based investors, with a focus on investors based in the United Kingdom. We hope to empower all this, so that future generations can look back in another 50 years time, having bore the fruit and most importantly the positive impact of the investments that we have made.

Why Bangladesh?

Bangladesh is a relatively new country, having emerged from its independence in 1971. 20 years later after its birth, poverty rates in the country were at a grim 40 percent - but due to rapid growth, this has massively reduced to 14 percent in 2016. The recent economic development of the region has been impressive with GDP per capita expected to surpass that of India by 2030. The country has been identified as ’The New Asian Tiger’, and this has been reflected by its receipt of over $3.5 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2020 alone - its highest level yet. It was the largest least developed country (LDC) in the world in terms of population and economic size, however the country has now graduated from LDC status in 2021 and is preparing to join the club of developing nations by 2026 and is further set to become the 28th largest economy in the world by 2030.

Over the past five years, the start up ecosystem in Bangladesh has been able to attract $400 million in FDI to date - and this thanks to a number of key drivers: strong economic vitals, a highly tech-literate young demographic, a fertile start up ecosystem environment, and finally, strong government tax incentives and policies. Bangladesh currently has 1,000+ active start ups, with 200+ new start ups born every year. With over $200 million in international VC funding brought in over the last decade combined with an increasing number of local accelerators and incubators acting as enablers - the country is only just getting ready for more growth. GreenBridge Capital is well positioned to access and participate in this exciting and phenomenal growth.
