Traction💲, social proof❣️, and momentum📈 separate ideas from investments. Before equity checks come validation. Kurudy’s reward-based crowdfunding helps founders prove demand, build community, and show progress. Later capital follows confidently.

Before VC and startups, Ugandan entrepreneurs built 🌾 agriculture, 🤝🏿 trade, and cooperatives during 🧑🏿‍🦱Milton Obote’s era. Limited capital. Big vision. African innovation didn’t start today—it’s rooted in history. Build forward by knowing back.

Strip away the fear, lies, and self-doubt planted by bullies, oppression, and racism.

Once their mental grip is broken, their physical power collapses. Liberation always starts within.
