The Capitall Consortium https://hellorvn.podbean.com The Capital Consortium

Investing in African and Caribbean innovations for power, wealth and influence across agriculture, tech, education and healthcare.

Four friends. Four spheres. One conversation about capital, power, wealth and influence.

We’re bringing agriculture, tech, education and healthcare to the same table to talk about who holds the money, who makes the decisions, and where the opportunities really are for Africa and the Caribbean.

Because innovation is one thing. Getting the right capital behind it, building the right relationships and having the governance to make it last? That’s another conversation entirely.

We’re here to have those conversations. The interesting ones, the uncomfortable ones, and the ones that make you think differently about where wealth is created, how influence works and who gets to shape what comes next.

This is The Capital Consortium. Pull up a seat.

On paper, Egypt is Africa’s comeback story. So why are we worried? The Capital Consortium looks at what’s really behind the headline numbers.

In this week’s group chat conversation, we unpack how much of that $15 billion comes from a single $35 billion real estate deal, Ras El Hekma, and what happens once it’s built. We also ask why 90% of Egypt’s graduates plan to leave, and why people still pay out of pocket for healthcare in a country that makes 80% of its own medicine.

Then each of us answers: if you had $1 million to invest anywhere, where would it go?

So why isn’t it wealthy? 👀 The Capital Consortium breaks down Abuja’s power, Nigeria’s brain drain, and why the diaspora would rather keep its money far, far away from home.

In this week’s group chat conversation, we dig into why Nigeria hasn’t invested in its youth, how Abuja’s government bubble hides what ordinary workers actually earn, and why Lagos is officially Nigeria’s American dream. We also ask who is really eating from Nigeria’s economic “comeback”, unpack how a fake presidential council walked off with ₦1.3 billion (who verified this?!), and debate whether a Nigerian diaspora fund could ever work when trust is this low.

We also compare African vs Caribbean remittances (Jamaica vs Egypt per person will surprise you), unpack the informal economy and financial literacy, and ask whether African cities should build their own emergency funds after USAID cuts.
