Jesse Ghansah reacted on thisJesse Ghansah reacted on thisLFG ⚡🧢⚡ 2 years ago, rali_cap was just a question: can a global community of fintech operators, collaborating on deal sourcing, DD and founder support, out-perform the traditional venture model? As I watched from the inside as Facebook struggled to scale financial services in emerging markets, I saw in parallel a new generation of local in-market fintech founders, growing up with the problems they set out to solve, increasingly accessing a globalized world of tech, talent and capital. And we set out to power their visions with hands-on, strategic, globally-connected early-stage capital. Huge thanks to those first founders who allowed us to join their journeys (Abdul Hassan, Kiaan Pillay, Emmanuel Gbolade, Uri Tintore). None of this would be possible without the early support, morale boosts, and early COVID era walk and talks with so many folks from across the global fintech ecosystem Daniel Shi, Anay Shah, Dan Kahn, Christine C., Mark Heynen, Mauricio Cordero, Ali Amin Sattar, Carl Tremblay, Jenny Johnston, Nik Talreja, Nik Milanović, Sheel Mohnot, Rob Eloff, Steven Grin; the funds backing this next chapter (Ted Breyer, Jay R., David Mort, Mario Ruiz, Jeremy Jonker, Jay Dahal, Christina Melas-Kyriazi, Steve McLaughlin, Eric Klose and many we can't yet announce); and our always collaborative, curious and downright awesome community of LPs and venture partners. Lastly, the biggest thanks goes to Kyane Kassiri for joining our leadership team this year and helping make this dream job a reality. (and, of course my mom. and wife 👋) onwards ✊Rali_cap launches $30M fintech fund for emerging marketsRali_cap launches $30M fintech fund for emerging markets

Jesse Ghansah liked thisJesse Ghansah liked thisHello, I’m Adaora👋 I work in the Legal Department, providing legal advisory support to various business units. I also provide Company Secretarial support to the FBNQuest Merchant Bank Group. Every morning, I talk to God and check on my loved ones. Then, I get to work. I prefer working from Home because I don’t need to worry about Lagos traffic🚦 or outfits to wear to the Office. Most importantly, I am able to get more work done at Home. To destress, I crotchet 🧶. I know it’s a bit random, but knitting is therapeutic for me. I also watch comedy skits to lighten my mood. After work hours, I watch a show and exercise sometimes. I am currently watching Inventing Anna and the new season of Queen of the South on Netflix. My colleagues don’t know this, but I can’t ride a bicycle to save my life. They also don’t know that I enjoy dancing. I was even in the atilogwu dance group in High School for 3 years 🤣. It is important to note that FBNQuest recognizes and rewards excellent performance🌟. It is also an organization that prioritises the welfare of its people. My favourite part of working here is the people, particularly my team, and the flexibility of working from Home. To #BreakTheBias in the workplace, I ensure that I don't react to people based on their gender. I accord my colleagues an equal level of respect in my interactions with them. - Adaora Onoh Legal Department #PeopleofFBNQuest #PoweredByPeople #FBNQuestWomensInteractiveNetwork #IWD2022
