After an enriching 29-year journey in the heart of London's bustling banking and financial industries, I've recently made the monumental decision to return to my roots in Albania. The transformation I've witnessed in my homeland is nothing short of astonishing. Albania has evolved into a land of opportunity, ripe for investment and business development. Gone are the days of uncertainty; today, Albania stands as a beacon of stability and growth in Southeast Europe. One sector, in particular, has caught my eye—the thriving IT industry. The enthusiasm and talent among Albania's young generation are palpable. They're eager to contribute, innovate, and build their careers right here at home. It's inspiring to see them shunning the notion of migrating to other EU countries in pursuit of opportunities. While the scale may seem modest to some, the burgeoning desire for growth and innovation is palpable. In particular, the IT industry and banking sector are experiencing remarkable strides forward. What once seemed like a distant dream is now a vibrant reality. What sets Albania apart is not just its eagerness to embrace change, but the quality of its offerings. The IT landscape here is not merely an offshore destination—it's a nexus of talent and capability, rivaling even the most established onshore companies. It's time for EU IT giants to take notice. Albania offers a unique blend of affordability and excellence, making it an ideal destination for expansion and collaboration. Here, you'll find a workforce driven by ambition and a country poised for greatness. I invite you to consider Albania as more than just a picturesque destination. It's a dynamic environment primed for investment, especially in the burgeoning IT sector. The time to act is now. The landscape is changing rapidly, presenting a myriad of opportunities for those willing to seize them. Let's dispel the notion that size equates to significance. Albania may be small in scale, but its potential knows no bounds. Together, let's redefine what it means to thrive in the digital age.

Philippines is ranked 95 among 190 economies in the ease of doing business, according to the latest World Bank annual ratings. However, based on the Corruption Perception Index as of 2022, the country ranked 116th in the list of 180 countries by scoring 33% (below the global average of 43%). For struggling Filipino entrepreneurs, it’s more like 190th or last place. Registrations, Permits, Licenses et al take forever to be issued - unless you have connections or $$$. Heck, even simple government ID’s take weeks when it only takes minutes in other countries. #3rdworldproblems

‚We have a great project but struggle to finance it!‘ ‚We have money but struggle to find projects!‘ Those two statements could not contradict more. Though this is our everyday reality… …which is why I invested in establishing a venture arm of AMENA AFRICA Let me give you some high-level reasons: ✅ African projects are usually not developed to a bankable level - it mainly needs structuring ✅ Bridge financing is one of the biggest impediments to get projects to a bankable level ✅ Ticket sizes are still relatively low for global standards. $100m can get you a long way ✅ Once properly structured African projects are highly profitable Drop me a line if you’d be interested to learn more about our venture arm. We are actively looking for projects that can be highly profitable, have an impact on society and are on pre-feasibility level. What would you invest in here on the African continent? #investment #africa #project #entrepreneurship
