300+ events in 2 years. I outgrew my network, so I went where the people I needed already were. Started at Lagos Tech Fest 2024 with 2 goals: expand my network, get a job. 10–15 events monthly. It took 18 months but built real leverage

Your 20s are a window to build a life your future self will thank you for.

In this episode of 20+ Lessons I Learned in My 20s, I share four things to invest in early: education, career, finances and experiences.

Which are you investing in?

#LessonsFromMy20s #PersonalGrowth

Please pick up my calls, Dele. I've been patient with you.

I started @GO54_hq (Whogohost) in my first year at OAU.

Then @Jobbermandotcom (Jobberman), with 2 of my friends and built it to 50,000 users before graduating. At NYSC camp, investors came knocking with a $1M offer.

The journey taught me a lot about building, partnerships, g real problems.

I shared some of these lessons, what we're building with .CV, and my thoughts on entrepreneurship in the age of AI on The Builders Podcast.

Women bringing their ambition, ideas and perspectives to the future of technology. Tech Women Fest 3.0 created space to learn, build connections and see beyond familiar circles. The energy reflected a generation ready to shape Africa’s technological future.

#TechWomenFest2026

At Tech Women Fest 3.0, the conversation went beyond getting women to build. It focused on what keeps a business viable: testing demand before building, using AI to strengthen execution, and leveraging partnerships and communities to reach markets & expertise.

This should be fun!

Good morning @Theoladeledada how far. Please pick your calls.

Please I beg you, invest in proper research; product, market, user, brand research.
You don’t know as much as you think you do I promise you.

Delivered a great session at the African Union today.

Resilience is not enough to scale African businesses. Seed G3 2026 explored the systems, sales discipline and capital needed to compete globally. Congratulations to Lola Ajani, Seed Nigeria Network and Stanford Seed on a decade of impact.

Hi @Theoladeledada. I can't reach you, please pick your calls.

At TeXcellence 5.0, CWG Plc explored what Africa needs to scale its digital future: stronger infrastructure, local expertise, enterprise AI, talent development and intellectual property so African businesses and creators capture more value. Adoption alone is not enough in Africa.

Your 20s are your building years.

Build the skill. Build the experience. Build the relationships. Build the character.

Chase clarity before capital. Your first version may be messy. Build anyway. Learn. Adjust. Build again.

The reward may not come immediately. Keep building.

I said this last year! The biggest issue with our productivity is that the middle management layer is very thin. Those who should have been training up the next generation left, and rightly so, so now what you have is an overworked top, undervalued bottom, and a torn middle.

The Africa SME Assembly Founders and Investors Mixer brought together founders, investors & ecosystem players, with roughly 80 businesses represented. Through Vencapital’s partnership, the evening created space for connections, collaborations & new possibilities.

The value of an ecosystem gathering lies in the people who show up ready to build, learn and explore possibilities together. Africa SME Assembly 2026 brought founders, investors and ecosystem players together to advance African businesses.

#AfricaSMEAssembly #ASA26

At #AfricaSMEAssembly, I joined “Why Investors Say No” to discuss SME due diligence. Ambition isn’t enough: investors need sound numbers, governance, documentation and evidence of demand. Investment readiness starts long before the pitch, building confidence and scale.
