About this listen

Episode overview

This episode cuts through boom/bust headlines to show what’s actually powering Africa’s innovation engine: local angels, smart syndicates, sector shifts (agri & climate), creator rights, and the “boring” admin that finally pays creators.

What’s inside (fast):

  • Why angels > headlines—survival, jobs, and real outcomes..

  • Collaboration is capital—syndicates, mentorship, and term-sheet literacy.

  • The gender truth: bias when men lead checks; parity when women do.


  • Why it matters
    Visibility feels good; ownership changes lives. If you’re AfroNouveau—builder, creator, student, diaspora pro—this is your playbook to move from applause to upside.
