The Afridigest Week in Review is a must-read weekly recap for Africa-focused founders, executives, and investors, as well as interested observers. Share it liberally. 😊
Welcome back, friends! Welcome to Week 2’s digest & I hope US readers had an enjoyable MLK Jr day. The most clicked link from last week was 'The Quick and Dirty Startup Founder’s Compensation Guide.' Lastly, excuse the tardiness & thanks for your patience with today’s newsletter — I lost someone close to me yesterday & was unable to publish on Monday as planned, but here it is now.
If you’re new, welcome 🙌 — you’ll receive a weekly digest like this one every Monday and, generally (but not always), an original essay/article on Saturdays. For past essays and digests, visit the archive.
