Founders' connect is my new YouTube series where I have conversations with leading African Entrepreneurs and Venture Capitalists. In this series, I hope to learn more about your favourite African Tech CEOs and the amazing products they are building to solve real problems for you and me.

To launch this series, I have a conversation with Atsu Davoh. Atsu is building Bitsika, a payments app for the whole of Africa - where you can send, spend, issue Visa cards, buy airtime, buy and sell crypto and more.

Watch, share and comment.
