ALTX is innovation
Meet The Founders
Joseph Kitamirike
Joseph spent several years at the highest levels of the traditional securities market which he found to be rigid, and inhospitable to innovation. This made investment inaccessible to the people who needed it the most. Combining an awareness of the possibilities offered by technology and the financial know-how, Joseph set out to change the investment landscape.

The confidence to invest can only be gained with knowledge. By providing free, open access to custom content based on the experiences of our investors, ALTX ensures potential investors are adequately prepared to participate in the market.

Now, anyone with any level of interest can find the answers and support they need on our web and mobile platforms.
