The Biggest StartUp Failures in Kenya

[@s3tt1ngs90]

Summary of Lessons to learn from the biggest Startup Failures In Kenya. 1. Innovation is great, but scaling responsibly and diversifying is what counts. (iProcure) 2. Beware of low margins and high costs. Also, success is as much about resilience as it is about adaptation. (Market force) 3. The setup is not just about saving the planet. Sometimes, it's about saving your own balance sheet. (Grow Intelligence) 4. You can have all the ambition in the world and the backing to match it, but without a sustainable revenue model, you're dancing on thin ice. (Copia)

It's easier to criticize than to build.

The narrator is a very good story teller. I've loved this video. She should appear more.

The real business is in scamming foreign investors. Even a class 8 dropout in Kenya can tell many of those startups had unachievable and foolish ambitions.

The problem with the Kenyan market is the govt has it's hands in everything..either through unfavorable policies or as a competitor.

[@zackopiyo8857]

I strongly advocate for a model that builds back, starting with the customer and working toward the product.

[@alvinmutuma5033]

do you mind elaborating on this further, use the e commerce as an example

[@repotranstech]

Talk to customers first and know the real problems that needs solutions before actualising.

[@BoaventuraNassera]

Well-produced and informative content, I liked it! mz

It too hard to grow a start up in Kenyan market or Africa at large but we hope things will improve, if you start up doesn't turn profit immediately you wont succeed trust me.

[@CalebM-r3k]

Consider... featuring the successful ones also....this may crush people's spirits

[@Kenneth-e8t]

Insightful content

[@briankimathi3060]

Mind Blowing... This is very insightful and somewhat scary😅

[@repotranstech]

Pure software startups will always work due to low running costs. e-commerce model like jumia, copier,twiga where you have lots of logistics and labour will always eat into your profits.You will have lots of cashflows but the macroeconomics will always catch up with you if not profitable.

Great contentkeep up the good work

[@dummyaxle2099]

Avoid startups that have too many moving parts or depends on other players to make it a success 😂😂😂

We lack a subscription culture 😂 even paying for something as simple as Netflix needs a nuclear science manoeuvering many aren't savy for

[@Historical_Echos]

Nice🎉🎉.

[@abiriafrica]

Mambo ni ground. Africa is complex, let the people on the ground be the founders.

[@DoubleT847]

In kenya, anything that can be done by a local man, don't try to start-up it.

[@JamesBrian-bm3nk]

nice one

[@AdrianKuloba-ky8bc]

Twiga foods has to be number one😂

[@HLMM_KE]

Absolutely. Twiga went belly up in or around July of 2023. The scamming CEO Njonjo had to leave, new funding came in and now they ate new trouble..... I dont see them lasting another 6 months.

[@tech_with_biniyam]

What You Did On Grow Intelligence was Nasty With the boy ....

[@HOI555]

How twiga foods has escaped this list still buffles me..its by grace i guess

[@sammydennis4867]

Kenya has a decentralized market and economy; while some solutions do look legitimate and worth venturing. The decentralized aspects would always be the great hurdle that business have to overcome. Yes and Twiga Foods didn't make the list...😅😅

[@startupsoko]

Well Twiga is not yet did...Its in The ICU😅😅
