Tomi Davies speaks on retirement, the african tech scene and angel investors | TechCabal
Summary
I have been using the opportunity to consolidate my hardcore commercial operations into capable hands leaving me to focus on more strategic regional and global initiatives like ABAN and GBAN. Like others across the globe, the Nigerian Tech ecosystem system continues to grow at a phenomenal rate, maturing in some areas, disrupting some sectors and innovating others while delivering unprecedented change in its wake. We are now starting to see startup entrepreneurs like Chika Nwobi, Tayo Oviosu, Sim Shagaya and Jason Njoku mature into becoming angel investors in their own right, how cool is that? I am fascinated by the new set of combined diaspora and local leadership teams in startups such as Andela and find it interesting how new ideas like Shoppey, SheHive and the summer code schools are coming on the scene. Add to that a couple of sizeable exits in the form of Kenya’s Weza Tele and South Africa’s WooThemes and you get the bigger picture that the venture scene is holding its own part of the ecosystem.
