Just curious how you sourced your Ensibukko investment. AngelList? Or direct relationship with the company?

And I agree, Africa is hot hot hot ;)

Like all good investors, I know people. :)

Investors will feed you crap about being value-add, experience, help with sales, help with hiring, etc, etc. But good investors know people and bad investors don’t know people. They call it “proprietary deal flow”, but it just means that they know people.

I'd like to know the answer to this too.


I have been working for the last 5 years to help investors access "proprietary" deal flow. I am from Nigeria but live stateside.

I launched this recently to help with the discovery problem diasporavc.com

FYI: Ensibukko is a company I like very much
