SE Capital is a bridge from the past reaching into the future, providing strategic services for small to medium sized black-owned businesses looking to expand locally and abroad.
Our Mission & Strategy
Our Mission
SE Capital is inspired by Samuel Edwards, a black entrepreneur who built a prosperous enterprise in the American South despite Jim Crow laws and economic oppression. His entrepreneurial spirit and family values have been passed down for generations.
He had a vision beyond the station in life to which he was born and dared to dream. That passion is embodied in the work of SE Capital.
Our Strategy
We provide services for black-owned businesses looking to expand locally and abroad. Our experience across multiple industries enables us to assist in making business visions grow.
We closely tie our work to specific industries and areas of expertise to avoid overpromising. Our passion for underserved businesses and communities allows us to satisfy a niche that is often overlooked.
