- Running a hardware startup comes with its challenges but I can say I look forward to waking up to them everyday.
- Cycling in Kampala is an extreme sport but these motor bicycles make it feel like a breeze. It was great cycling with you bro.We’re cruising nicely on the streets of Kampala 🇺🇬 on an “motor-bicycle.” This brilliant Ugandan founder @geofrey_muta converts regular bicycles into e-bikes in just 10 minutes
00:00 - African entrepreneurs are over trained and underfunded.
- This is the trick to having a long and healthy battery that no tech company will tell you. They want you to buy more phones. Get yourself a @ChargeKo power bank to keep your phone charged and your battery healthy.“Always keep your phone in the battery 🔋 range of 20% - 80%, that’s how you keep a long healthy phone battery” Word of advice from @geofrey_muta the @ChargeKo guy ✊🏿🔥

- Karaa made it into the @qualcomm Make In Africa 2023 Cohort. We are going to build some super useful tech over the next few months. Get ready to have your minds blown.
- If you take a $100k loan from a bank, you work for the bank. If you take a US$100m loan from the bank, the bank works for you. They will do anything in their power to ensure that you succeed because if you go down, you go down with them. #businesslessons
- Happy birthday @Nickle_las. Your lessons and advice around this time last year got me back on track with my startup. Blessings upon blessings for all the good work you’ve done and are doing.👊🏽
- Almost all the food delivery riders in Lisbon use electric bicycles and majority of them are DIY conversions. This reaffirms how huge the opportunity of converting bicycles for delivery gig workers allover the world is.
- But you guys, early stage founders are superheroes. Fundraising, selling, customer care, team building, talking to policy makers, building product and still having time to breathe. I used to think @Davisthedoc was telling lies naye the struggle is real.
- Had a great time showcasing Karaa at the #UgandaEUBusinessForum at Speke Resort Munyonyo. Got to also catchup with lots of friends and colleagues like @Opiaiya, @Hashim11, @wekesa_amos, @jusskodjoe and more. Thank you @EUinUG and @JanSadek for a great event.
