@PresidencyZA Does this also apply to foreign nationals who are already in SA?

Probably 35% of all founders are out there busting their ass because

a) they want to convince the world (ie themselves) that they aren't a fucking loser

b) they're sick of people not believing in them

c) they're unemployable otherwise

d) nobody else will give them a chance

What if apps had ‘hours of operation’ like retail stores? You could only use Instagram 9 AM to 9 PM Thursday through Tuesday. Microsoft Excel was open for business 8 AM Monday - 8 PM Friday

If we could simply bring together all the different responders that are already out there, we could make Cape Town safe again! @seonnetwork @aron_hyman

[Stephanie Hayden @flyinglawyer73]

Sensationalist headlines appear to be a feature of papers called the “Sunday Times”. Cape Town (like any city in South Africa) has crime issues but to label it “World’s most dangerous” is ridiculous. Johannesburg is far more tense and requires significant precautions.

@RitchKev Just read your article on armoured vehicles in JHB. Shocking! I founded my startup and moved from Germany to SA to help people get fast emergency responses. We can solve this problem if we bring talent, capital and technology together!

[Finn Plotz @finn_plotz]

@schlaf @stbaasch Definitely. I really appreciate investors that are serious when they say that the team matters most. A great investors wouldn't need some generic test to make that call though.

@nihalmehta Hi Nihal! I'm building an "Uber for security" managed marketplace startup and will be in NYC late next week. Would you be up for a coffee?

@santigoodtime @bjc290 @sgorlick Hi Santi, we are a mostly German team, most of our investor are from the EU and the holding entity is registered in Germany. MVP market is Cape Town, SA

[Finn Plotz @finn_plotz]

@ChronosCap @bjc290 @sgorlick We built SEON to provide extra security for everyone from tourists to Jon Doe. Fully understand that VIPs, diplomats and presidents require a lot more than that but they are not our target market.

[Finn Plotz @finn_plotz]

@MikeMahlkow @bjc290 @sgorlick Hey Mike, our holding entity and most of the investors and team members are actually German. Happy to shoot through the deck if you can ping me email to [email protected]?

[Finn Plotz @finn_plotz]

@bartdessaint @bjc290 @sgorlick Happy to send you the deck. Can you ping me an email to [email protected] maybe?

[Finn Plotz @finn_plotz]

@bartdessaint @bjc290 @sgorlick Hey Bart! Cape Town, SA is our MVP market. Most of the team, investors and the holding company are actually German.

[SEON @seonnetwork]

Met a founder building the Uber for private security around the world.

Extremely impressed with his vision and what they’re building.
(h/t @sgorlick for the intro)

Which top-tier VCs invest internationally and might make sense for an intro? He’s in SF for a few days 💪🏻

[SEON @seonnetwork]

Located at the foot of Signal Hill, the V&A Waterfront is a hot spot for shopping, eating, drinking and socialising. 🙌

@GooglePlay Our panic button app allows sending alerts to ERTs via SMS. This got us blocked. Can we talk?
