Hello,
Welcome to this week’s newsletter from Lulu. Your one-stop for all the doings in Talemia and the African tech ecosystem at large. If you are new here, welcome home and my name is Lulu, Chief Noisemaker on all the doings in the tech ecosystem and pioneer of AprokoTech😂
This week’s letter is different and sensitive. But it’s also our anniversary week so despite all the happenings we had to show up(like we always)
We turned two and that’s 730 days of showing up every single day. Wow!
We have a lineup of events to unfold and we can’t wait for you to unpack this truckload of fun.
In the light of our anniversary we would be showcasing some of our contributions to the ecosystem. We pride ourselves as the support system to MyTruQ up until they got into TechStars and beyond. Move anything, anytime and anywhere with MyTruQ. Move now
We believe everyone has a superpower and we help you discover and use your superpowers in smashing your goals. Effortlessly send and receive money across borders with Centiiv - the ultimate cross border payment solution for all your global transactions. Proudly supported by Talemia.
Other than supporting startups, we had key partnerships to foster community in the ecosystem. We partnered with CivicHive to host a physical hangout for early stage founders brainstorm about ideas, solutions and hacks in the startup ecosystem.
We preach more than building, traction and hacks, we also want amazing products to be seen and heard. We partnered with Backend to amplify African stories. We are providing a platform to share their stories with the world as well as showcasing innovative ideas and products being built out of Africa
It’s an audacious one but we believe in few years we will own a Netflix original telling the untold stories of the African Startup Ecosystem.
Beyond the buzzwords and funding rounds, lies the untold story of African startups. VO, Cynthia and Oluranti unraveled the challenges, triumphs, and unexplored potential of the African startup ecosystem. You could listen to the recording HERE
There's something beautiful about friends winning together. Have you informed your friends about Centiiv’s IEO token sale? It's happening live now, let's get to the moon together!

If there’s anything the last few days taught us it is never to make fun of our parents for recreating this.
‘Cause why is a GenZ watching the news?
But this one is actually valid. Shege touched but the millennials and GenZs
It’s our birthday but we couldn’t scream too much about it. You know “read the room”. Good thing we have a lineup of events in the following days

Think of Flippa but without any fees to post a startup for sale. There is absolutely 0% commission on a successful sale. Unlike other marketplaces, it doesn’t ask you to pay or unlocking offers too.

Do you think I should have added something that I left out? let me know🥹
PS: Don’t forget to tweet about this newsletter and cut soap for two people (the way network marketers do it is if you bring two and another person brings two more people…)
