Afridigest Week in Review: Strive-ing for cyber security
Share
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, friends! The most clicked link last week was 'Operating efficiently at scale' from Coinbase CEO/Co-Founder Brian Armstrong.

This week’s newsletter includes some firsts. For the first time, there’s an Ask Me Anything section near the end for public responses to reader questions. Please continue to send questions in. Thanks to those that have already done so and thanks also to Bloc Founder Edmund Olotu — we had a very interesting conversation last week which should be published on Saturday. Relatedly, in another first, this newsletter contains audio — make sure to press play to hear Edmund’s take, in his own voice, on getting deals done.
If you’re new, welcome 🙌🏽 — you’ll receive a weekly digest like this on Mondays usually and, sometimes (but not always), an original essay/article on Saturdays. For past essays and digests, visit
