The Afridigest Week in Review is a must-read weekly recap for Africa-focused founders, executives, and investors, as well as interested observers.

Welcome back! Here’s some quick news:

1. Since Week 31’s digest, I published 'Demystifying venture opportunities in African markets.' It responds to some of your frequently answered questions about the earlier-published Hierarchy of Venture Opportunities — Thanks for your feedback, please keep it coming!

2. The 'Thought Circles' concept is taking shape and should kick-off soon. Thanks for your support, and stay tuned!

If you’re new, welcome 🙌 — you’ll receive 2 weekly Afridigest emails: an original essay (on Saturdays at 7pm-ish Lagos time) and the weekly digest (every Monday at 12 noon-ish Lagos time). For past essays and digests, visit the archive. And subscribe below if you haven’t already:
