Investor confidence isn’t sentiment. It’s structure. From stage in Cairo to coverage in BusinessDay, Punch & The Nation, message is clear: Africa’s markets are shifting from potential to proof. At ODBA, we’re building systems that make ambition measurable and trust investable.

From diplomacy to dealflow. Our GP @GOduneye at the Ripple Summit in Cairo 🇪🇬, one message stood out: → Investor confidence isn’t sentiment, it’s structure. → Liquidity follows credibility. ODBA backs founders turning proof into signal. #RippleSummit25 #Africa #VentureCapital

Trade, capital, and geopolitics are reshaping Africa’s opportunity map. Aid is shrinking. Tariffs rising. Supply chains rewriting. @GOduneye spoke on how Africa can build its own systems of trust in trade, capital & regulation. → Proof before policy. Systems before sentiment.

Lagos has always been where Africa’s biggest ideas meet execution. Next week, I’ll be speaking at Moonshot by TechCabal 2025 & joining the Ministerial Roundtable on building credible digital and trade infrastructure. One city, one signal. #MoonshotByTechCabal #InvestInAfrica

Fraud is a race against time. Every second lost puts customers, reputations & capital at risk. Our #portco Archer built its Case Management platform to change that: → Unified alerts & actions → Real-time dashboards → Audit-ready logs Faster resolutions. Stronger trust.

Africa’s growth story is too often told in fragments The real debate is at the intersection of SMEs, the backbone of jobs today & technology, the infrastructure of tomorrow. On Sept 29, I’ll join the @royafrisoc at SOAS to unpack: SME vs Technology 🔗 https://t.co/TkJZCavuwP

At #FluidityRiyadh 🇸🇦our GP @GOduneye joined panel on Africa–GCC venture alignment → Africa is enabling but uneven regulation & exits deepen capital. → Exits must be engineered: corporates, secondary platforms, governance Credit to @JasonNjoku for convening a powerful signal

Our portco @kundakids set out to reimagine how African stories are told. Today their animations are onboard @FlyingBrussels long-haul flights, proof that African founders can build brands that travel the world. We back improbable stories. #improbablestories #creatives #africa

If you don’t frame your risk, market will frame it for you #Money2020 Riyadh @GOduneye spoke on how founders turn stories into investable confidence: → Authenticity as pattern, not performance → Risk as raw material for advantage → Narratives anchored in proof, not aspiration

Tough markets don’t kill opportunity They filter it What remains is fundable → Traction before narrative → Burn multiple before vanity growth → Governance before charisma → Proof before vision Ambition gets you started Discipline makes you fundable #BigtechAfrica #Tunisia
