Over the past week or so, the Desert Green Africa Team has been undergoing a Customer Discovery process for #GreenKart, for the ampteenth time now and the value extracted from it keeps growing exponentially everytime we do it! 🚀👌🏾 The process is teaching and re-teaching me alot of things as a Founder but most importantly is the realization that Early-Stage Founders don't actually own businesses, they own problems with the intention of building solutions for them, which makes Problem-Solution fit one of the most critical elements in the early Stages. We are grateful and Fortunate for having the support of ecosystem players who truly understand the golden value of Customer Discovery, like SAB Foundation and Impact Amplifier for our Impact Measurement Discovery and i13 Ventures for the Product and Market Discovery. Most importantly, we are grateful to our customers like SWEET CHEFS and Base Eats who keep affording us the opportunity to 21 Question them repeatedly, in order to help us help them #FeedThefuture #Agritech #B2B #GreenKart #innovation #StartupAfrica #BuyNowPayLater

This afternoon Enterprise Ireland Africa were delighted to join the Irish Tech Challenge South Africa #ShowcaseDay at the incredible Tshimologong Digital Innovation Precinct in Johannesburg.

As a member of the selection committee, Enterprise Ireland Africa was proud to witness first-hand the exceptional talent and innovative spirit of South African tech entrepreneurs. This initiative not only aligns with our commitment to fostering global tech leadership but also underscores Ireland's position as a dynamic tech hub with a heart for inclusive growth.
