15 founders across 8 African countries are running their businesses through this exact checklist right now in the "Can Africa really do it?" challenge — from unfundable to investor-ready. This is your copy.

Here's how raises actually die: not in the pitch meeting — in the analyst's spreadsheet, two weeks later. An arithmetic error. A contradiction between your deck and your numbers.

You've read your own documents fifty times. That's exactly why you can't see what's wrong with them.

Inside the checklist: the same 7 document groups diligence checks, as a tick-box list — who you are, the business on paper, money in, money out, what you own and owe, market proof, and your numbers summarized. Mark each one: ✅ Have it · 🔄 Have it but informal · ❌ Don't have it yet.
