Lakou is a Haitian concept which was first manifested after the successful 1804 revolution. After victory, the formerly enslaved Haitians would build their houses typically surrounding a central courtyard. This physical courtyard served as a relational space for Haitians to meet, pray, and collaborate socially and financially with other families and friends (Desir, 2011; Jean-Denis, 2022). The vision of Lakou capital is to facilitate investment and education into Haitian entrepreneurs who are developing the country. Our organization will resemble a hybrid between an educational platform and a venture capital fund dedicated to Haitian startups. Lakou capital will provide educational and marketing content which will help these client firms develop their business models and perform valuations so that they are prepared to receive capital and grow. Our impact will be seen in the economic contributions and societal changes that the associated entrepreneurs will make in their communities. Furthermore, we are developing an investment network where any investor can invest directly into for-profit Haitian businesses or sectors with impactful ideas. Please contact us if you want to partner and support this vision.
