PLEASE REPOST: I built South Africa's first black-owned electric vehicle company. I have deployed 70+ EVs with Blue Chip Companies, Local SMEs and exported to the UAE. I have invested R9.5 million of my own money over 10 years. The IDC has given me R0. They gave a white-owned competitor R69.9 million. Thread. 🧵 @businessXplain @ParliamentofRSA @sedfa_dsbd @DSBD_SA @the_dtic @IDCSouthAfrica @PublicProtector @NAFCOCKZN
I have a story for a news channel or newspaper regarding the IDC. We have made our submission to the Parliamentary Committee and a petition. Please comment or DM me. This is a fight I have been going through for 8 years; it could even go to court now. Thanks.

Venture Capital ‘Backable’? 💡 I’ve reviewed over 3000 African startup pitch decks in the last 4 years. The most important question I ask myself each time is.. ⬇ ‘Is this startup VC ‘backable’?’ A thread 🧵
