Meet the Founders

Vusa Chimanikire

CEO

A serial entrepreneur with an affinity for social enterprise, Vusa stumbled upon the problem Entry is solving today through one of his businesses that was building affordable housing for banks in Africa. The issue arose, "how do you deliver housing finance to people without payslips?" Vusa witnessed firsthand the impact of the solution.

CPO

A natural strategic thinker and analytical problem solver, Tanaka's journey to Entry began with the simple question: "What's the best way to drive economic growth in Africa?" The answer was credit, and so began the multi-year process of developing a credit scoring tool that would allow banks and financial institutions to unlock housing finance for the underserved.
