Pitch Deck Hacks After 100+ Pitches: Keep It Simple, Show the Value

In this episode, I have invited Ismail Eleburuike, CEO of SchoolTry, a founder who has pitched over 100 times, to dive deep into the often underestimated power of the pitch deck. Many founders see it as just a formality or a design exercise, but in reality, it’s one of the first times you clearly explain what your startup is all about. Some of our takeaways: 1. Keep your deck focused on value. If you lose your audience in slides that don’t matter, you lose the investment. 2. The importance of continuous iterations in getting a good deck. 3. Feedback from investors can help strip down jargon and focus on what matters.

99% of companies aren’t made to receive VC funding —And That’s Fine

In this episode, I have invited Collins Gilbert, Associate, Platform & Networks Team, Ventures Platform Fund, to discuss what venture capitals look out for in African tech startups before investing and how startups can position better for investments. Some of our takeaways: 1. The market size and barrier of entry of a startup can affect VC attractiveness. Founders should target investors that align with their mission and understand the market they are building in. 2. Because of the currency instability in Africa, VCs are now focusing on startups with revenue in FX. 3. The debt needs of startups in Africa are increasing. This means there's a potential emergence of hybrid VC models with equity and debt in the space.

Rejection is part of the journey, it fueled me to success

In this episode, I have invited Tamsir Ousmane Traore [https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamsirousmanetraore/], CEO at Logidoo to share the story behind their latest $1.55 million seed round! Tamsir is a founder who is passionate about Africa and logistics. Today, he is connecting African markets through intelligent and smart logistics with Logidoo.  Main takeaways: 1. Founders should target investors that align with their mission and understand the market they are building in. 2. It is really important to not only take capital when fundraising. The added value an investor can add is also important 3. Founders should focus more on the business rather than raising capital. Founders need a good business to close the round.
