Team
Anna Oyelola, Founder + Principal
Anna Oyelola works with founders, leaders and stewards of capital navigating scrutiny, scale and consequential decision-making.
She operates at the intersection of capital, policy and narrative — advising high-growth enterprises on trust, legitimacy and durability as visibility intensifies. Her work spans founder evolution, strategic narrative, regulatory posture and capital signalling across political, financial and cultural arenas.
A UK–US dual citizen who grew up in the South West of England, Anna began her career on the founding team of Makuria, an award-winning European hedge fund, before working across green energy, corporate law and public affairs. She has advised boards and founder-led organisations across the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, Ukraine and Switzerland, often in contexts requiring discretion and elevated decision-making under pressure.
She has shared platforms with ministers, philanthropists and a former UK Secretary of State, and serves as Co-Founder and Non-Executive Director of Issa, an emotion AI engine used by global brands.
Anna works with a small number of founders at a time, bringing institutional calm to moments where scale, capital and public attention converge.
