Hey. We’re back like we promised in our previous newsletter.

And we’re coming in with a new product. On Tuesday, we launched our data portal. When you sign up, you’ll get access to our database of tech startups and companies based in Ghana. The list includes names of companies, the year the companies were founded, the founders, and if they’ve been funded by venture capital or received grants.

Users will pay only $20 a month (or 60 GHC) to have access to this database which will be frequently updated with new information and new data.
