@Pokee_AI

African Founders: Connecting Brilliant Startups to VC Funding
By
–
I've been reviewing pitch decks from my community this week. Bullish ngl. La crème de la crème. Fintech, logistics, AI, health Edtech. Brilliant startups, no access to network. That's the gap. 🫵 African founder? Reply "Founder" and let's connect the dots! Taryl🔥 (@Taryl_Ogle) We connect African founders to VC's and pre-seed funding. But that's a members-only perk. Right now we're opening access to a £25k–£100k accelerator backed by a $50M fund exclusively for African Founders Community. members. Comment "AFC" and I'll send you the link to join. — https://nitter.net/Taryl_Ogle/status/2039344649320509783#m
