A few useful things to know

Who are the chats for?

First-time, early-stage African founders, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds who would value practical feedback.

Do I need to be fundraising?

No. The chats are especially suited to founders who need feedback on their ideas and strategy, even when they are not currently raising.

Is there a fee?

No. These are pro bono founder-support conversations.

Does a chat offer access to investment?

A chat is an opportunity for feedback and guidance. It is not an investment offer or a promise of funding.
