The problem is daunting, funding is scarce, and the journey is lonely.Such entrepreneurs need a special kind of support. An investor who understands the problem well. One who is patient, because deep-rooted problems take time to solve.Who does more than just provide funding. Who is willing to take the same risks you take.We are that kind of investor. ​We are different from other investors because we actively seek out entrepreneurs at the early stages of developing their ideas. Don't have a product yet, or haven't started generating revenues? Don't have a complete management team yet? Don't worry, we'll work with you to achieve those milestones.To be good at what you do, you have to have focus and hone your expertise. Menterra therefore focuses on the following four sectors. We are, however, open to exceptional entrepreneurs with transformative ideas that are outside these focus areas.
