It takes a village to raise a child in Africa—let's build it together. 🚀🤝

Last night, I had the pleasure of attending #Harambee, a fantastic local tech event organized by @SerengetiAngels. It was inspiring to see passionate #startups pitch their innovative ideas to local angel investors, gaining valuable validation and potential future investment.

A huge congratulations to all the startups who pitched and especially to @j_kalebu from #GHALA AI for winning the night! Your vision and execution stood out, and I can’t wait to see how you grow.

Kudos to @MsechuRodrique @omoklin @essa_mohamedali for putting together such an impactful event. We need more of these platforms to nurture and support our startup ecosystem. Challenge and encourage more organizations to host similar events and for all of us—experienced professionals, learners, and future builders—to actively participate.

Let’s build our community together! #UNTILITSDONE

Events are marketplaces—are you playing to win or just collecting business cards? 🎯

At last #AfricaTechSummit @AfricaTechSMT one thing was clear:
✅ Startups chase investors.
✅ Investors chase startups.
✅ Corporates struggle to keep up.

Everyone has #KPIs. Everyone wants something. But are we truly building real value or just attending for the sake of it?

At @SAGAfrica_ , we believe the future of Africa’s ecosystem is in #collaboration, not competition. 🚀

So, after your last event… Did you walk away with real deals & connections, or just selfies & name tags? - Lets go to work 🤝
