Good morning.

If you work in African tech, you probably know Kola Aina, the founding partner of Ventures Platform. If you don’t, then you probably know some of the 90 startups he has invested in: Paystack, Moniepoint, LemFi, Piggyvest, and OmniRetail. 

For this week’s Ask an Investor, Muktar Oladunmade chats with Kola Aina about how founders should build companies, the future of his firm and exits, the rise of local investors in Africa, the companies he wishes he had invested in, and why art offers lessons for founders. Read it here. 

Staying with big shifts in African tech, another edition of The New Wave: Francophone Africa goes up today, and this time, we’re breaking down everything on the region’s interoperability play in payments, and the opportunities and challenges it creates for innovation. 

Keep an eye out today and ensure you don’t miss it.
