We recently hosted our annual Founders Community Event, a day dedicated to bringing together our portfolio founders, partners, and ecosystem builders for meaningful connections, shared learning, and honest conversations about building in Africa.

Great ecosystems are built when we give access, give capital, and give opportunities. This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the women founders, operators, and investors transforming Africa’s innovation landscape. Because when we give to gain, the ecosystem grows. #IWD2026

Happy Independence Day to our Ghanaian founders, operators, and friends across the ecosystem. 🇬🇭 We celebrate the builders and innovators shaping Ghana’s tech future.

Work is no longer something you join. It’s something you assemble. Welcome to the age of the Fractional Solopreneur. Where individuals operate like agile companies and micro-teams form in digital clouds. What does a one-person, billion-dollar business look like?

Congratulations to the @jamitHQ We backed Jamit because we believe the creator economy is undergoing a shift: from platforms owning distribution to creators owning audience, data, and monetisation. We’re proud to have backed this vision and excited for what comes next.

Half a million raised. But this isn’t about capital. It’s about unlocking millions of untold stories, unheard voices and bringing the best of human imaginations to life. Jamit is building the AI-native storytelling platform where creators: - Go from idea to IP - Own their content - Monetize globally with stablecoins - Build communities, not audiences Backed by @lavavc_ , CV VC @CV_Labs , @LiskDAO , @microtraction , @TheBatchery + operators from Roku & Replit. Audio is entering its A24 era. Let’s build.

For products that move money. For developers who make it move. → blnkfinance.com

The cracks in the foundation: Why the old model is collapsing under the weight of technology, crisis, and a new generation's demands.

From smokestacks to the cubicles: the 20th century perfected the corporate machine. But was the promise of stability worth the loss of autonomy?

Future of Work - Micro series. The Factory Floor: How the Industrial Revolution invented the "job" as we know it. Work became a place you went, a machine you tended, and time you sold. This system would dominate for centuries.

BLNK aims to make accuracy and precision the default. It reduces the surface area where silent mismatches and weak controls can accumulate until they become an existential threat to businesses in the financial services industry.

Payments have become easy to ship. Financial truth has not. Most teams can move money fast, then spend months untangling what happened after. Ledgers drift. Reconciliation stays manual. Compliance reporting becomes a scramble at exactly the moment volume matters.
