About Daniel Seal
British serial entrepreneur and investor building businesses across Africa and emerging markets.
London, Singapore, Almaty & Beyond
Daniel Seal is a serial entrepreneur and investor focused on natural resources, metals and strategic supply chains across emerging markets, with significant operating and commercial experience in Africa.
From London, he works with partners in West Africa, East Africa and the Gulf, building relationships with governments, local operators and mining communities.
Britain has always been strongest when it looks outward, trades confidently and turns global relationships into opportunity at home.
Building Unbound
Daniel co-founded Unbound, an award-winning international innovation and technology trade show business that connected leading founders, investors, corporates and policymakers across global markets.
He scaled the company into one of the leading global innovation event series. In 2018 he exited through a sale to SingEx, a wholly owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, the investment company of the Government of Singapore.
Azora Resources
After the sale of Unbound, Daniel turned to natural resources. He founded Azora Resources, a diversified mining and commodities group focused on the critical minerals that defence, technology and innovation depend on, and leads it as Executive Chairman.
The group works across the whole value chain, from exploration and mining to refining and international trade. More on Azora Resources
DeltaWorks, and the work in Africa
Daniel is also Managing Partner of DeltaWorks, a private family investment office that backs early-stage, high-growth technology ventures and strategic industries.
Across African markets, his approach focuses on responsible sourcing, aggregation and mine-to-market trade, built on long-term partnerships rather than one-off deals.
