When two young men working in Goldman Sachs and Microsoft tell you they will leave the iconic companies for a startup, you really have limited options than to support them. Yes, Gideon Ebose and Chidi Williams pitched Rulebase to Tekedia Capital, and when we asked “are you leaving these giants for this startup”, they said “YES”. We asked again, and they responded in affirmative. Quickly, we said “we’re in…we will invest in this mission”. They raised $millions from global investors, and have since relocated from London to the U.S..
Our hypothesis is that Gideon and Chidi will build a modern infrastructure for most African fintech companies in the domain of QA, compliance, support, etc. And so far, some of the leading fintech companies are converging because when it comes to such vectors, local experience matters. The traction is super impressive and African fintech companies now have a modern CX partner. Of course, the mission goes beyond Africa as the product is a global one.
