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! As promised, we’re back to your regular weekly schedule and the most clicked link from last week was a16z’s framework for navigating down markets. (And thanks to those of you that reached out, it’s much appreciated 🙏🏽)
