It's interesting how this historiography of African start-ups centres on companies that tapped into foreign funding. It's the only reason why you'd think Nigeria came to tech start-ups late. Companies like interswitch (one of the four unicorns referenced in the story) and ValuCard (now UPS) started as JVs of Nigerian banks from the late 90s/early 2000s. By 2003/4, ValuCard became first African fintech (that term wasn't common then) to receive direct investment in an EMV company.

Landing of the fibre optic cable also helped boost Africa's tech space.

What we don’t want is another software startup in Africa. Let start solving real issues of poverty such as shortage of education, water and energy and housing that can be used everywhere in the world. The most important being higher mass education. Unfortunately external investors want to make money in the short term which is not necessarily aligns with what the country needs for the long term. Go Kenya.

My concern is that do tech startups (providing services) produce jobs? I understand software developers are needed, but how can tech startups employ young Nigerians? Because Africa's problem is the inability to turn raw materials into refined ones, which are sold at higher prices. That, to me, brings in money into the county, which can then be disseminated throughout the country. But one company creating services like a mobile banking system makes things easier but does not create jobs.

Darn it. I hoped I'd be unusual and visionary if I invested in African businesses, because it's the one continent where you can be sure the economy will grow greatly. I should have known that experts and professionals think of everything before you do. (FYI. This comment is kind of flippant. For one thing, I'd guess there is still opportunity.)

What is the vision for nature, ecology and the city in Africa ? Are they thinking long term or will the jungle just take back the built environment as has happened in the past ?
