About Arriba

Building finance capability that drives Africa forward.

Arriba exists because too many talented people lack access to the practical skills that open doors in investment and project finance.

We teach financial modelling, valuation, and deal structuring—and build a community where investment professionals keep learning, sharing ideas, and growing together.

Our Story

Arriba started in 2024 with a simple belief: Africa's transformation will be funded by people who understand how to build, structure and finance great projects.

After years of working on real transactions across banks, funds, consultancies and development finance institutions, we saw the same challenge — talented professionals with potential, but limited access to practical, job-ready skills.

Arriba was created to change that.
