There is a huge potential to be unlocked when we drive innovation across the continent. Smart investments and partnerships can to some extent help us achieve a stable financial system that supports long-term growth and development. On a larger scale, we need to start thinking towards building strong markets that can handle economic ups and downs and place more focus on stability and growth across sectors. #EquityOwnership #FinancialLiquidity #CapitalStructuring #Exits #Liquidity #StartupExists #AfricanExits #Capital #CapTables #Equity #Shareholders #Shares #Raise #EquityManagement #Startups #AfricanStartups #investments #Futureplanning #AfricanInvestors #Investors #StartupFounders #Raise #RaiseAfrica #MarvinColeby

Panelists highlighted how Africa’s evolving landscape is reshaping the dynamics of brain circulation. A fintech founder shared insights into his journey from Africa to Europe in pursuit of capital for his startup, only to witness a few years later a reversal as investment flows back to the continent, in tech hubs around cities like Nairobi, Lagos and Capetown. This trend reflects a mutual exchange of talent and resources, with potential benefits for diaspora and home countries. https://lnkd.in/eyD5fXtH

Thanks Ndubuisi Ekekwe and Tekedia Capital for believing in our vision and supporting us early in our journey to usher a new era of payments in Central Africa. We're excited to have you in our corner. Many founders and investors I talk to see the DRC almost like a mythical El Dorado. They hear about the potential, the people, and the wealth, but they hesitate due to perceived risks and uncertainties. However, the DRC today is no different from Angola, Ivory Coast, Kenya, or Nigeria a few years or decades ago when they made their transitions and giants like M-Pesa and Flutterwave emerged. When you see tens of thousands of people walking on Lumumba Boulevard an afternoon in Kinshasa, the new market being built to host 120,000 merchants, and the bustling grocery chains throughout the city, you understand one thing. The DRC is at a turning point, and those who see beyond the forest of doubts will be the big winners, just as in other African markets. The difference is that the DRC is MASSIVE—massive population, massive resources, massive potential, and a wealth of experience from other African markets, all equating to massive returns. The leapfrog the DRC is about to make will be one for the ages, and VaultPay (YC S23) is committed to being one of the catalysts of that change.
