Red Sea Ventures’ Post

Are you building a generational brand? 👇🏽 "I urge founders to take the time to test their ideas, and speak to customers at length before committing to an idea and raising capital, as the idea is not just a tool for raising a seed run but it’s a commitment for the next decade+." #startupsuccess #startupadvice

"That's why we hold this event. reIGNITE is all about rediscovering that spark that brought you on this journey in the first place. It's about surrounding yourself with like-minded people who can relate to your journey, your struggles, your triumphs, and your goals."

Great article from our founder about his crazy journey before Visionary Clarity. "Here’s what I believe: focused, batshit crazy visionaries can save the world. But when they lose that focus, it’s not just the business that suffers—great ideas that could have made a significant impact fade away. That’s where we come in. By refocusing that visionary energy, we not only bring back the passion but also drive better business results. We’re talking about increased profitability through clearer strategic direction, enhanced team cohesion as everyone aligns with the core vision, and accelerated innovation because your energy is directed toward creating value, not just maintaining the status quo."

You were created to lead. Trapped within you is a hidden leader. Leading is an ability possessed by every person "including you". The majority believe that leading belongs to an elite, especially trained few. Not so! Each person is like a star in the galaxy. You have your radiance. The key is putting your gifting to use in the service of others. #TakeCharge #TheLeaderWithin #scoreyourfuture #digitalafrica #Talent4startups
