What founders say

“Alternative Circle gave me a broad understanding of what pitching to investors really entails. For someone in sub-Saharan Africa, the platform shows you how to navigate and answer the critical, hard questions investors will actually ask. As the founder of an upcoming new-age media company, I learnt a lot — lessons I wouldn’t have learnt otherwise: restructuring our approach to align with emerging technology, and moving from a news company to an Audience Intelligence company that keeps evolving.”
