African commerce is increasingly happening through conversations on platforms such as WhatsApp, but completing a transaction can still require multiple steps outside the chat.
ChatCash is seeking to bridge that gap with its conversational commerce platform and has secured investment from @IngressiveCap to support its Pan-African expansion.

The best leaders I met in Dalian weren't politicians. I think that's the whole point. A week at the @WEF Annual Meeting of the New Champions, among people who run countries and industries. So few were career politicians.

1/ In 2024, Africa moved $1.105 trillion in mobile money — up 15% in a year, across 81.8 billion transactions. That's about 74% of every mobile-money transaction on Earth, through 1.1 billion accounts. (GSMA, 2024) Can we retire "Africa is behind on payments" now? 😅

1/ I sat in on Li Qiang, Premier of China, lay out the next five years of a hundred-year plan at the WEF in Dalian. No slogans. Just arithmetic — growth targets, 12M new jobs, grain tonnage, carbon down 3.8% — read like a grocery list.

first clip a while back — here's the whole thing. Watch to the end, that's where it lands 😅
Remember when USAID funding got pulled? Of course, ouch. Watch what African governments did next: changed rules. No more shipping raw shea, iron ore, cobalt, lithium; you add value HERE first.
~60% of our exports are still raw commodities. The aid pullback is pushing that % down
Our founder @mhorganfamodu: Africa doesn't have a payments problem — it has a coordination problem.
The next winners won't be another wallet. They'll be the rails everyone else depends on. 👇
Africa's private capital "downturn" was a 19% increase.
Q2 2026: 221 deals (up from 185), but disclosed value fell to $10.8B from $16.7B.
Q1 wasn't a market. Four mega-deals in a trench coat. More deals, smaller cheques = an asset class forming.

A self-taught dev coding from Addis Ababa just sold internet plumbing to Silicon Valley.
Vercel acquired Better Auth, ~1yr after a $5M seed.
Meanwhile African tech hit 63 M&A deals in H1 2026 — nearly 2x last year. Not a raising story. A returning one.

At Africa Tech Summit Kenya last week, our senior associate, Ali, joined the “Inside the Term Sheet” session to share what truly drives strong founder–investor partnerships and what founders should pay close attention to in their term sheets.
Clarity is everything.

Think US interest rates + tariffs don’t affect African startups? 🌍 Lower rates = cheaper capital. Tariffs = costlier imports. Global money moves shape your wallet + business. Ignore at your own risk. 💡 Agree or nah? 👀

Some people don’t hate you—
they just hate that they can’t control you.
The moment I stopped dimming my light
and leaned into those who see me for me,
everything changed.✨
