The unwarranted hit job on Rwanda’s partnership with BAL by @Markfwespn of @espn is futile. #RwandaWorks #AfriCan

The “Sports-washing” brigade is swimming against the tide: The NBA is just one of the global sporting brands who have come to see that there’s a world beyond the West. For them, Africa offers huge growth potential – both in terms of revenue and fans – and it’s also an opportunity for them to contribute to our development. And also for the sheer joy of sport, that brings people together. It’s a win-win.

[Pascal Murasira @PascalMurasira]

Having in front of me hundreds of pitch decks from Rwandan startups and investor comments on each, the single biggest challenge for our ecosystem is - consistent traction, not the profile of the founders.

While recent tax reforms are helpful to all businesses, we need special incentives for locals to buy from startups.
Waiving VAT when purchasing from a youth-led startup could be a great way to start.

Startups can play a critical role in driving innovation, and job creation, and fundraising is essential to their growth, particularly in their early stages.

By creating an enabling environment for investors to put money into these young ventures, we can stimulate economic growth and promote a more vibrant and diverse economy, which enables a wider tax base.

- A personal opinion.

Great opportunity to improve internet coverage in remote areas. Before late, kids in a little remote village will have the same opportunity as the one in New York?

On who has the best implementation in Africa: It's hard to compare as they started at different times but Rwanda is advanced because more entities use the system. Some have better foundations now like Uganda, & Nigeria started last year & are already publishing data - @migarich
