🌟BIG NEWS FOR AFRICA🌟   We are thrilled to share that two of our earliest partners, MaxAB and Wasoko, have officially merged! 🎉 Having been early backers of each company and intimately involved in this merger process, we couldn't be more proud of the incredible journey both companies have undertaken to reach this significant milestone. Maxab and Wasoko have consistently demonstrated innovation, resilience and a commitment to empowering businesses across the B2B e-commerce landscape across Africa. This merger marks one of the largest tech consolidations on the continent to date.  The combined company possesses a clear path to being the pan-African leader and offers compelling synergies, notably in management teams, technology, purchasing power and cost savings.   This merger represents a significant step forward in creating even greater value for local merchants for B2B e-commerce and financial services across Africa, and we're excited to continue supporting Belal EL-Megharbel and Daniel Yu as they embark on this new chapter together. Congratulations to the teams at Maxab and Wasoko—we're confident that the future is bright! 🚀 #VentureCapital #Ecommerce #B2B #Innovation #Maxab #Wasoko #Merger #Growth Link to article in first comment
