It’s still a brand new year and everyone is full of expectations/aspirations, even as many plans are being mapped out for implementation. In corporate Africa, we expect to see plentiful deals being signed, especially in the startup space where foreign investors’ interest remain keen.
Also, with regards to new product launches, expansion and fundraising, expectations are high. The question then is this —which African startup founders should we expect to see dominating 2022? Let’s take a good guess based on what happened last year.
This fintech startup was among the top fundraisers in 2021, having secured $170 million in equity funding during a Series C funding round that was led by Tiger Global and Avenir Growth.
We look forward to seeing the new innovations Olugbenga and his team will be coming up with this new year.
