Omono, a next-generation asset tokenization platform, and FasterCapital today announced a strategic partnership through the EquityPilot program to accelerate OMONO’s commercial rollout from Accra, Ghana. The collaboration combines OMONO’s blockchain tokenization technology with FasterCapital’s global investment, mentorship and go-to-market resources to capture growing demand for digitized assets across Africa and beyond.
Market opportunity & problem statement
Global interest in asset tokenization is surging as investors seek liquidity, fractional ownership and transparent markets. However, much of Africa remains underserved: high-friction legal processes, limited access to institutional-grade custody, and fragmented secondary markets hinder participation. OMONO targets a white space where tokenization can unlock capital from previously illiquid assets real estate, commodities, creative IP and SMEs addressing a multi-billion-dollar opportunity as regulators, banks and enterprises explore digital securities.
Startup solution & differentiation
OMONO provides a web-based, blockchain-powered ecosystem that enables individuals and organizations to tokenize tangible and digital assets, list offerings, and trade on a peer-to-peer marketplace. Key features include issuer and investor dashboards, KYC/AML-native workflows, smart-contract-based share management, and dividend distribution to linked wallets. OMONO differentiates with Africa-tailored subsidiaries (ama entertainment, Kejetia e?commerce, OpenSourceAfrica developer hub), on-the-ground operational setup in Accra, and an initial tokenomics model aligned to long-term growth. Early traction includes strategic advisor endorsements and localized market partnerships that validate product-market fit.
FasterCapital partnership value
Through the EquityPilot program, FasterCapital will provide OMONO with seed capital, technical mentorship, compliance and tokenomics advisory, investor introductions, and support for a regulated market-entry strategy. FasterCapital’s selective screening and global acceleration model validate OMONO’s team and product-market potential. Expected outcomes include accelerated product completion, regulated pilot deployments, and a targeted capital raise to support expansion across West and East Africa over the next 12–18 months.

People who worked with me or knew me still called me the \’world\’s fastest human\’ because I almost never stopped. I\’d found that I could get more done with no regular job or regular hours at all, but by being on my own, flying to speak here, help with a Public Relations campaign for some client there, tape my regular jazz radio show one morning at 5:00 a.m. before leaving on a plane for another city or another continent three hours later to preside over a major sporting event. – Jesse Owens
