Our story

Rooted in CGAPP's work.

Helix is the financial advisory arm of CGAPP, the Centre for Global Affairs and Public Policy, a non-profit, independent organisation established in 2021 and working across governance, economy and global affairs. Rooted in rigorous policy research, it bridges policy design and on-ground implementation, working closely with local governments and public institutions on civic challenges through technology-enabled solutions.

CGAPP also supports impact-driven early- and growth-stage startups through strategic guidance, ecosystem access and partnership facilitation, helping them navigate complex policy environments and scale sustainably.

Helix grew out of that work. It applies the same relationships to fundraising, preparing startups for their raise and connecting them with the right investors. The relationships and track record are CGAPP's. The investor focus is Helix's.
