NAIROBI, Kenya, Apr 8 – African electric vehicle firm Agilitee is set to enter the U.S. public markets following a reverse merger with Media Sentiment Inc..
The deal, disclosed on April 2, will see Media Sentiment rebranded to Agilitee Inc. upon completion, with the transaction expected to close on July 31, 2026.
Following the announcement, Media Sentiment’s share price surged by more than 100 percent within two trading days, reflecting strong investor interest.
The merger will enable Agilitee to list on a U.S. stock exchange, becoming one of the first African electric vehicle and greentech firms to access global capital markets through such a structure.
Under the deal, Agilitee shareholders will own 95 percent of the combined entity, with existing Media Sentiment shareholders retaining 5 percent.
The company said it will retain leadership continuity, with Irina Veselinovic continuing as CEO of the merged entity.
Agilitee has also relocated its headquarters to Miami, positioning itself closer to global investors and technology markets.
The firm plans to inject assets valued at about $4 billion into the listed entity, underscoring its growth ambitions in electric mobility, artificial intelligence, and green technologies.
Founded in 2018 in South Africa, Agilitee’s move marks a significant step in expanding African innovation onto global financial markets, as it seeks to tap international investors and scale its operations.
