Our story
2017
Emata saw the light of day!
We started Emata because we were convinced that we could leverage the technologies, big data capabilities and innovative business modelling we had built with Laboremus Uganda.
Our goal is to solve some of the main challenges that hold back the flow of agricultural financing in Africa today.
