I think it makes sense to explain this again after many in the community missed the connection between OPay and ORIDE/OFood. I coined and postulated the Double Play Strategy. In most startups in Africa, founders are using phrases like “this is our double play”, and “that is expected to be the double play”. I have a Board meeting this evening, and I know it will come up!
This is the double play strategy. What is your double play in your digital business?
