— Vincent Nova, Founder of A.B.I
My name is Stephen Vincent Pisas — most people know me as Vincent Nova.
For years I worked in transport. I thought I knew business. Then a Congolese friend named Oscar Kabaya invited me to Nairobi. That trip changed my life.
What I saw there cannot be put into words.
A city building itself in real time. A generation of entrepreneurs moving faster than anything I had seen in Europe. A market so underestimated by the West that the opportunity was almost embarrassing.
I flew back to the Netherlands. Then I flew back to Nairobi. Then again. And again.
I have been telling people for years: Africa deserves your belief.
Look at the numbers. The Nigerian stock exchange is up 33.5% this year alone. Kenya’s NSE gained 14.2%. Meanwhile, the AEX crawls at 4%.
This is not luck. This is a continent finding its stride. A population of 1.4 billion people. The youngest workforce on the planet. The fastest urbanization rates in history.
And infrastructure investment pouring in from every direction — UAE, China, India, the Gulf states. Everyone sees it. Except most Europeans.
That changes now.
I have a Kenyan ID. A Kenya LTD registered and active. A bank account at DTB Diamond Trust Bank in Nairobi. Partners I have done business with — real business, not just LinkedIn connections.
My partner Mike brings a network that runs deep into Congo, Ghana and Nigeria. Our Nigerian partners support our operations across West Africa.
Between us, we have genuine relationships in four of Africa’s most dynamic markets: Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana and Congo.
This is not a website about Africa. This is a platform built by people who are IN Africa.
“I’ve watched European entrepreneurs miss opportunity after opportunity because they were afraid of what they didn’t understand. A.B.I exists to end that fear — with intelligence, with presence, and with people who go with you.”
— Vincent Nova
Nairobi operations. Kenya LTD registered. DTB banking. MPesa integration. Deep relationships in finance, transport and mobility.
Lagos partners with deep roots in finance, logistics and the Nigerian Exchange. The largest African economy. 33.5% stock market growth in 2026.

DRC connections through our founding network. Home to 70% of the world’s cobalt. The sleeping giant of African resources.
Something is shifting. More and more European entrepreneurs with African roots are coming back. They see what I see. They know what the continent is capable of. The momentum is building.
A.B.I exists at the intersection of European capital and African opportunity. Our AI monitors 54 countries around the clock. Our intelligence is free for everyone.
And for those ready to act — we go with you.
Personally. Physically. To Nairobi, Lagos or Accra. Because trust is not built on a screen.
The opportunity is not coming. It is already here. The question is whether you will be part of it.
“We don’t just give intelligence. We build trust.”
