The work continues offstage. Now, it’s time to put it to the test. 🚀 Over the past few weeks, the TC Battlefield 2026 Top 20 have been sharpening their ideas, strengthening their fundraising strategies, and preparing to take their startups to the next level through our pre-accelerator programme. We brought in facilitators to share their expertise, challenge assumptions, and equip these founders with insights they can take beyond the classroom and into the real world. Now, the programme has wrapped, and the next milestone is here. Tomorrow, our Top 20 founders will step into the mock pitch competition, where they’ll put what they’ve learnt into practice before the next selection stage. Only 10 will advance to pitch live at Moonshot. A huge thank you to our facilitators for sharing their time and expertise, and to Yango Group for supporting the journey to discover and back Africa’s next generation of promising startups. The preparation is done. Tomorrow, the pitches begin. TC Battlefield 2026 is brought to you by Yango Group. #Moonshot2026 #MoonshotByTechCabal #CourageandConviction

Onafriq, a digital payments network that operates across 40 African countries, is winding down Baxi, its Nigerian agent banking business, after five years, following what the company calls a review of its long-term strategy and sustainability. The company said in a statement on Friday that inflation, naira depreciation, rising operating costs, lower trading volumes, margin pressure, and the rapid growth of instant account-to-account payments have made the offline agent banking business unsustainable. techcabal.com/2026/10/16/ona…
