About Catherine Denis

Co-founder and COO of Numida. I have lived and worked in Uganda, Rwanda, Burkina Faso, Mali, Haiti and Colombia for 8+ years figuring out how to build teams, build robust processes, and get things done in challenging environments. I hold an MPA/ID from the Harvard Kennedy School and graduated in Systems Design Engineering from the University of Waterloo. As a French Canadian, I always welcome the opportunity to work or connect in my mother tongue.

Companies & Work

Numida

Numida

Numida provides working capital loans to African micro businesses. Instead of borrowing from informal lenders or family, micro business owners download the Numida app, apply in minutes, and receive capital within a day. We have figured out how to score and disburse unsecured loans to cash-based businesses that have no digital transaction history, while maintaining excellent collection rates. Since 2021 we have provided $23M in working capital to 32,000 businesses in East Africa.
