Constant Works – What We Believe

Constant Works builds and invests in successful African infrastructure platforms. We build sector operators who are positioned for long term effectiveness.

THE CHALLENGE

Sub Saharan Africa has a rapidly growing populace and with decades of underinvestment, a massive infrastructure shortfall. Consequently, there is significant infrastructure demand.

Private investors have had limited success investing to meet this demand. Partly, we believe, because investors overprice development risk in projects, and as a result too few projects are taken from concept to bankability stage even for proven business models.

OUR STRENGTH - BUILDING

At Constant Works we draw on global and local relationships and experiences to conceive, structure and develop entire platforms, always planning and structuring them as permanent corporate entities with minimal currency and tenor risk.

We prioritize proven business models in the market, where there is limited uncertainty about generating revenue or identifying customers. We are focused on sectors where our presence will accelerate other businesses. Digital infrastructure, transport infrastructure, midstream and downstream gas and waste management are all sectors we are invested in.

Every company has strong operational and financial capacity, and investment is structured for the long term with a focus on maximizing the durability and effectiveness of the platform. We draw on specialized human and corporate expertise to ensure the companies are competing from ideal positions, bringing global and local resources to bear.

WHAT THIS MEANS - VALUE

We maximize value because we build the platforms ourselves, drawing on the deep sector experience of our operational partners and our innovative, experienced finance team.

Our companies are funded with efficient and stable capital.
