Founding season in pre-production · Diaspora Capital programme in development
Pilot and founding partner enquiries openBeyond Home · People. Capital. Contribution.
A global media, research and convening platform about what people build after they move — and how knowledge, networks, mobility and capital travel between home and host markets. We begin with the African diaspora and build outward from there.
The premise
Millions leave the countries where their stories began. They build careers. Companies. Families. Wealth. Ideas. Beyond Home explores what happens next.
The first editorial focus is the African diaspora, where questions of mobility, remittances, investment, skills and belonging intersect sharply. The broader inquiry is global: what happens when a person's economic and social life operates across more than one country?
The conversations programme
These are pre-publication editorial concepts, not confirmed guest bookings. They show the range of people and systems Beyond Home intends to examine.
Beyond Home
Planned conversation
No. 01 · Capital
Target guest profile: senior correspondent-banking practitioner
United Kingdom
A planned conversation on the settlement chain behind a remittance: where a transfer can lose value between a European sender and a recipient in West Africa, and why the true cost may extend beyond the headline fee.
Planned conversation
Beyond Home
Planned conversation
No. 02 · Entrepreneurship
Target guest profile: founder of a regulated cross-border payments business
Western Europe
A planned conversation on founding a regulated payments business in Europe for a market connected to home: operating at a distance, licensing where you live, and avoiding assumptions about customers you think you already understand.
Planned conversation
Beyond Home
Planned conversation
No. 03 · Science & Health
Target guest profile: consultant clinician in a public health service
United Kingdom
A planned conversation on training abroad, sharing expertise across borders, and the difficult arithmetic of medical migration for both the health systems clinicians join and the ones they leave behind.
Planned conversation
The framework
Where we came from and what shaped us. The decisions, ruptures and ambitions behind a life built somewhere else.
What we build, save, invest and move across borders — and the systems that determine the cost, risk and accessibility of that movement.
How internationally mobile communities shape the societies they join and the places they came from — through work, enterprise, knowledge, networks and capital.
The capital question
Beyond Home is developing a research programme around transfer friction, FX and convertibility, capital repatriation, cross-border credit, trust, governance and product design. We distinguish published evidence from hypotheses and do not recommend where anyone should invest.
Corridor research
Six corridors, examined one at a time: what public data shows about transfer cost and market structure, where the friction sits, and which questions the available data cannot answer. Every figure is attributed to a named source and reference period.

One of the most developed diaspora corridors in West Africa, and one where the last mile has been solved far more convin…
