A healthtech I’m fundraising for is doing $40k in MRR. Yes, MRR, not GMV. They’re currently raising a $1m seed round and I’ve secured ~$300k in soft commitments from two VCs, one in Boston and one local. I need a lead investor on this deal. Send a dm if you’re interested.

My business will be eight years old in a few weeks, and this is one thing I am truly proud of because I have spent most of my life building it and I love how it has turned out. For those meeting me for the first time, my name is Lois Adeniji, and I am building Spur Nation Group (@SNG_HQ), a multi business firm focused on solving startup problems from one place by helping founders cut costs, build sustainably, and reduce failure rates without the need to move from one agency to another. Spur Nation Group operates through several subsidiaries. Spur Nation Media (@SpurNationM) offers marketing and advertising services that help startups increase visibility, grow revenue, and secure a larger share of their market. Nurture Support Solutions (@NurtureSupport_) is a BPO that provides customer support services to growing businesses. Dreamlab Technologies (@TryDreamLab) supports non technical founders and teams that want to enter the market quickly by building MVPs and websites in record time. Skill Spring (@TrySkillSpring) helps startups hire talent that fits from day one while also running a talent pool that shares job and international opportunities, alongside campus and internship programs that keep talent skilled and ready to contribute immediately. Avocado Publishing Co. (@HelloAvocadoCo) handles publishing for thought leaders and writers who want to focus on writing while we manage editing, production, marketing, and distribution. Common Room Africa (@JoinCommonRoom) is a founder focused community designed to reduce the loneliness of building a startup through in person events, mixers, and shared learning spaces. Ease Finance is a software that simplifies accounting for startups. Maison Lael (@themaisonlael) is our newest addition, created for founders and professionals who want to stand out through what they wear. We are always looking for more startup problems to solve, and you are welcome to speak with me and my team. #TheMediaQueen

Spur Nation Group (@SNG_HQ) is focused on one thing: simplifying business solutions for startups and making it easy for founders to access everything they need from one place as they move from ideation to growth and eventually scale. Startups work faster and make better decisions when their tools, support systems, and operations are not scattered. We are building a unified multibusiness ecosystem that brings structure and accessibility to the entire startup journey. A US expansion strengthens this mandate. It allows us to link our ecosystem directly to the global tools, partners, and operational infrastructure that startups rely on. It also gives us the base we need to support founders who want to build with international standards from day one. Why we should win: We are not applying for visibility or a symbolic global presence. We are applying because this expansion directly impacts the founders we serve. Winning gives us the capacity to connect African and emerging-market startups to global business solutions in a simpler, more organised, and more efficient way. It helps us build a system where founders no longer have to navigate fragmented platforms or complicated setups as everything they need exists in one structured place. This opportunity strengthens our work, expands our reach, and allows us to deliver the kind of seamless operational support that startups deserve. #GoGlobal #MyNorebaseExpansion
