Incredible #FIFAWorldCup 2022 ⚽️⚽️ My takeaways: - Messi is the 🐐 right now. - Mbappé will be the 🐐 when he’s done. - African players need to play for their countries of origin 🌍 - African countries must stop charging players to play 👎🏾 - World Cup is the #1 global event 📺

@hpierrejacques Amazing 🙏🏾 I’m in Ghana for next 6 weeks as well — when will you be in Ghana? Strictly honeymoon vibe or are you looking to connect with the local entrepreneurship ecosystem?

Off to Africa for my honeymoon 3.5yrs later. See you in 2023 America ✌🏽 Excited to visit Kenya and Ghana.

Last week, we invited members of the Tribe IDEA Fellowship, supported by @EmeraInc, and various stakeholders in the community to celebrate BIPOC entrepreneurs, advocating for inclusive policy, research and innovation in Nova Scotia. 🔥 📹 : @UnboundMediaInc

One of Alfred Burgesson’s achievements that landed him on the 2022 30 Under 30 innovators list is his BIPOC community platform that enables members to connect and explore job postings, grant funding and scholarships. Well done, Alfred!
