Austin, Texas & Dubai, UAE –

Horizon Congo and FasterCapital today announced a strategic partnership through the EquityPilot program to accelerate investments and commercial development across the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The collaboration pairs Horizon Congo's project pipeline with FasterCapital's global investor network, mentorship, and go-to-market resources to unlock infrastructure, mining, hydrocarbons, and real estate opportunities in the DRC and regional markets.

Market Opportunity & Problem Statement

The DRC sits at the intersection of rising global demand for critical minerals, energy, and African urbanization, yet faces chronic infrastructure gaps, limited capital access, and fragmented project execution. Investors increasingly seek scalable, de-risked opportunities that combine strong governance, environmental responsibility, and credible local partnerships. Horizon Congo addresses these challenges by assembling investable project cohorts aligned with international standards, filling a critical gap for ethically managed, large-scale development in Central Africa.

Startup Solution & Differentiation

Horizon Congo is a multi-sector project development initiative focused on financing and delivering transformative transportation, mining, hydrocarbons, and mixed-use real estate projects across the DRC. Its execution model blends public-private partnerships, joint ventures with local stakeholders, and technology-enabled operations to reduce execution risk and environmental impact. The initiative emphasizes sustainable practices, local workforce development, and transparent governance. Early-stage project agreements and stakeholder memoranda demonstrate traction with government and community partners.
