Why this book should exist

Strive Masiyiwa has been quietly publishing the most thoughtful African business writing on the internet for over a decade. His LinkedIn essays are bookmarked by founders from Kigali to Cape Town.

We don't want Western business books anymore. We want one that doesn't assume the electricity is on.

If anyone has the credibility, the discipline, and the love for this continent's next generation of builders to write that book — it's him.

The promise

A book of essays drawn from forty years of building from no — capital, infrastructure, and political risk — for the founders being asked to do the same.
