"I don't exactly know how, but he'll get you sorted — and you'll somehow have fun doing it."— Michael Muturi, Head of Biochar, Tupande (One Acre Fund)
"Very operational and pragmatic. He handled our local entity structuring in Ethiopia, where getting it wrong would have put both our credibility and operations at risk."
Mirafe Gebriel Marcos
General Manager, ALX/Sand Ethiopia
"We would love you back in. My co-founder appreciates that you took a bet on us!"
Denis Kirera Muchoki
CEO, E-Moti
"You gave us space, trust and time to figure things out and yet kept us accountable. For our next round we want to give you stock at my personal cost."
"I would share your number if they wanted to get something slightly insane done and didn't have the confidence to do it. Your greatest strength lies in making a team believe a mental idea can be made real — and you'll be there to make it happen."
Manager
Bain & Company
"He's a legal ninja and fixer that has worked with all shapes and sizes of tech founders to figure out all sorts of issues. Get Shit Done, with professionalism and a flair of fun."
Senior Leader
Tech Industry
"Pepe is the go-to for sorting it out — especially if you have a global business and need to manage complex structures. Not sure how you were able to do all that you did — there was always a million things on at once, and somehow you were always switched on."
Cassie Coash
Head of Partnerships, Rainforest Builder
"If you're ready to get serious and held seriously accountable, Pepe will always be honest with you (even when it stings), but you can trust that he is rooting for you to become the best version of yourself."
Faith Gathoni
Lawyer, ALX/Sand (2020–2024)
"Talk to Pepe, he's great at helping you uncover your 'why.' He challenges your assumptions in a way that leads to deeper clarity about your current path and whether you want to shift into something new."
