African commerce is increasingly happening through conversations on platforms such as WhatsApp, but completing a transaction can still require multiple steps outside the chat.
ChatCash is seeking to bridge that gap with its conversational commerce platform and has secured investment from @IngressiveCap to support its Pan-African expansion.

The best leaders I met in Dalian weren't politicians. I think that's the whole point. A week at the @WEF Annual Meeting of the New Champions, among people who run countries and industries. So few were career politicians.

1/ In 2024, Africa moved $1.105 trillion in mobile money — up 15% in a year, across 81.8 billion transactions. That's about 74% of every mobile-money transaction on Earth, through 1.1 billion accounts. (GSMA, 2024) Can we retire "Africa is behind on payments" now? 😅

1/ I sat in on Li Qiang, Premier of China, lay out the next five years of a hundred-year plan at the WEF in Dalian. No slogans. Just arithmetic — growth targets, 12M new jobs, grain tonnage, carbon down 3.8% — read like a grocery list.

Some people don’t hate you—
they just hate that they can’t control you.
The moment I stopped dimming my light
and leaned into those who see me for me,
everything changed.✨

AI in Africa isn’t hype.
It’s billions in insurance fraud recovered.
It’s biotech breakthroughs.
It’s customer support in Swahili.
If you're building with AI, don’t wait for “the right time.”
This is the time.
We’re investing. → ingressivecapital.com

I get this question a lot so I have to clarify 😂.
Ingressive Capital is NOT a strictly female venture capital.
We invest in the best! Gender is definitely not a criterium we consider.

Why do companies fail? I shared a conversation last year with @PeterDiamandis, and he referred to a study that revealed the biggest reason: TIMING!

“I’m bringing foreign investors, I’m creating structures, I’m raising a fund…”
In our ongoing conversation about young Africans making millions of dollars, we speak to Maya Horgan Famodu. The unstoppable founder of @IngressiveCap .
At just 23, she defied the odds of Nigeria's "very ageist, insular, and nepotistic" business landscape, and now her fund backs giants like Paystack, valued at over $1 billion. But her journey didn’t start with wealth or status—it began in a trailer park in Minnesota.
Fast-forward to today: Maya’s securing top-tier investors like Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian and Twitter’s Jack Dorsey to help drive African innovation. Despite the challenges, she’s raised $10.2 million for African startups and aims to hit $50 million next. Her story is one of resilience, bold vision, and pride in her mixed American-Nigerian heritage.

as Maya shares her journey from Minnesota to Nigeria, her biggest wins, and what it takes to identify Africa’s next unicorns. This is a conversation that blends ambition with authenticity—don’t miss it.
Press play, and get inspired!
