@hope_ndhlovu's startup checklist: βœ… Be blissfully unaware of how hard it’s going to be βœ… Start anyway βœ… Realize it doesn’t actually get easier… ever Good thing we’re building ecosystems where founders don’t have to do it alone. πŸ’ͺ #startupsupport

What most people don’t know is that I decided not to take a high-paying tech job after my Stanford MBA and instead flew back to Tanzania to start building NALA. - 2016 β€” Testing out various ideas during school. - 2017 β€” Graduated β€” moved back home to Dar es Salaam, no funding, early testing. - 2018 β€” Convinced a co-founder to join, built a domestic payment service in Tanzania, received cease and desist letter from biggest telecom mobile money service in Tanzania. - 2019 β€” Got into YC (after 5 attempts), then my co-founder quit one week before demo day. Struggled to raise pre-seed money but a few people bet on us. - 2020 β€” No product market fit, covid pandemic β€” pivot the business. Shut down old business. Do layoffs. - 2021 β€” Running out of money, pivot the business again. Started building cross border payments. Some investors told us this would never work. Running out of money. - 2022 β€” New NALA consumer cross border fintech business live, growing fast.. Raised $10m seed round. - 2023 β€” Present: Scaled to, 500K users, 10x revenue growth and profitable. - 2024 β€” Raise $40m Series A. One of the largest Series A in African tech history. While many read the round announcement news and assume it’s been an easy journey, this is just a highlight reel of the journey we’ve been on.
