When we started expanding into the Francophone market, one thing became clear very quickly: strategy alone wasn’t enough. We needed someone who truly understands the community. Someone with deep Francophone roots and a real grasp of how the creator economy works from the inside. Expansion isn’t just about building from afar; connection is important, and that’s why this felt like the perfect fit. We’re very proud to welcome @victoire_mahoun as the first Creator Ambassador for the largest creator platform in Africa, and we're excited for our future together. 🚀💜

Successful founders do these 7 things every day: 1. Marketing 2. Marketing 3. Marketing 4. Marketing 5. Marketing 6. Marketing 7. Marketing

And here they are

What to prioritize this April: → Accelerator programs with open applications → EU and development bank grant calls for African founders → Corporate innovation programs with zero equity requirements → Regional funding specifically for West and East African startups Each of these has deadlines this quarter.Each one is accessible to founders who apply properly.

First understand why most founders miss these opportunities.

They're not on the first page of Google.
They don't go viral on Twitter.
They don't make headlines on TechCabal.

They live in embassy newsletters.
Corporate innovation portals.
Development bank announcement pages.

The founders accessing them aren't luckier.They just know where to look.

April has funding opportunities most African founders don't know exist.

Deadlines are closing.
Applications are open.
Here's what to look out for this month. 🧵

The biggest funding gap in African tech isn't Series A.

It's pre-seed.

The moment between 'I have an idea' and 'I have a product.'

Fuzé by Digital Africa exists specifically for that moment.
€20K to €100K. Based on your stage.

Building in African fintech/web3 means you're also building a compliance team, a legal strategy, and a banking relationship before you write a single line of code.
