Most founders I know have done impressive work.
Real clients. Real results. Real impact.
And they're still losing deals because they can't prove it convincingly.
Today I launched something about that. 🧵

This week we're dropping Early Voices Ep. 1 — a conversation with a final year student who's already a data engineer, running a data community, AND co-founding a food startup on his campus.
Drop a 🎙 if you want to share your story next.

The GenZ Desk is back. Properly. 🧵

We're a youth editorial desk at @techsomaafrica — and we cover the part of African tech that most media skips entirely.

[The GenZ Desk @theGenZDesk]

Not the founders. Not the investors.

The students. The fresh grads. The people in their first tech job trying to figure out what comes next.

Real stories. Clear explainers. No gatekeeping.

Good morning everyone.
Today is Monday!!!
Let’s get this.

[The GenZ Desk @theGenZDesk]

We had @iambig_dan on the first episode of Early Voices. He shared his experience as a young founder, community leader, and a data engineer still in the university.

Very inspiring!!

It’s here!!

Early Voices on GenZ Desk!
Your journey matters and can inspire others. We ensure they’re heard🔥

[The GenZ Desk @theGenZDesk]

We’ve made a space for new tech stories!
Beginners, intermediates, any stage you’re in.

Early Voices is where we talk to people while they’re still learning, still building, and still finding their place. Not after everything makes sense.

More conversations coming soon.

As a beginner in tech, what’s something you struggle with?
