London-based global strategy and communications firm Curzon PR has won the branding brief for Kairos Angels, an investment platform focused on emerging markets, co-founded by investor and entrepreneur, Temi Marcella Awogboro.
Launched in 2018, Kairos Angels is a transformational company, aiming to become a regional champion and tomorrow’s global challenger. Kairos partners with visionary entrepreneurs to build scalable and sustainable businesses, investing in founders who are obsessed with changing the world for the better.
As a PE and venture capital investor, Temi is uniquely positioned and privileged to operate at the intersection of finance, technology and impact.
She believes in the power of private capital to transform lives and act as a catalyst for profound, deep-rooted change globally. With over a decade of experience in finance across developed and growth markets, and across the funding life cycle, Temi has committed nearly half a billion dollars in private partnership capital so as to resolve some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
“As we enter the Fourth Industrial Revolution, I believe that we – as global shapers – are called to shape this technological revolution, empower people and create more equitable outcomes for our communities and the world,” she said.
“The power and potential to drive growth markets forward, and the opportunity to achieve equitable inclusive growth, ultimately maximise human wellbeing. I am focused on channelling smart, impact and innovation capital to address structural fundamental issues and leveraging Fourth Industrial technologies to close the gap between growth markets and the rest of the world.”
Harnessing the catalytic power of private capital, the Nigerian-German-Scottish investor and entrepreneur is poised to make significant strides in healthcare, financial services, technology, gender lens investing, among others.
A graduate of Cambridge and Stanford, Temi began her career in finance as a derivatives trader at Goldman Sachs. She went on to work for leading global private equity firms.
Temi said on working with Curzon PR, “Curzon’s strength and expertise in the finance sector and their specialisation at the intersection of frontier, emerging and developed markets will help in reaching the international finance community in the UK, Europe and beyond.”
Farzana Baduel, the CEO of Curzon PR added, “It is an exciting time to be working with women entrepreneurs, especially in the finance sector. We look forward to working with Temi Marcella Awogboro.”
