Patna gives African businesses a complete system for discovering the right partners, verifying who they can trust, managing those relationships, and unlocking capital to grow. One platform. Every tool.
Every tool below exists because a founder described a real cost. Nothing here is decoration.
Stop searching. Start matching. Patna’s discovery engine surfaces the right businesses for your specific needs — by industry, capability, geography, and intent. Not a generic directory. An intelligent matching system built for the complexity of African B2B.
Every business on Patna has a Trust Score — a dynamic rating built from verified information, partnership history, and community reputation. Know who you can rely on before you commit.
A dedicated CRM built specifically for B2B partnerships — not sales. Track every relationship from first contact to active partner to completed deal, with full shared history.
Post what your business is looking for — distribution partners, manufacturing capacity, co-branded campaigns, funding co-applicants — and let the right businesses come to you.
Active, verified members with strong Trust Scores unlock access to the Patna Innovators Fund — grants, soft loans, and co-investment tied to your platform track record.
Your business profile is your digital headquarters — capabilities, team, documents, and partnership intent, all verified and visible to the partners who matter.
Your command centre — see your Trust Score breakdown, active partnerships, pending opportunities, fund eligibility, and network activity. Everything your business needs, in one view.
Your Trust Score is the most important number on the platform. It determines your match quality, your fund eligibility, and the weight of your endorsements. It is built from five verifiable dimensions — not subjective ratings.
