“Strengthening Tanzanian SMEs: The Game-Changing Potential of Blended Finance” medium.com/@Zuw508/streng…

Thanks for everyone who showed up to our FWD Accelerator event earlier today. It was good to have FSDT , Funguo Tanzania , SEAF and UNCDF #Tanzania on a panel sharing their experience and knowledge on importance of partnerships when it comes to ecosystem growth.

“On blended capital- it partially derisks the investment for the financier and reduces the total cost of capital for the entrepreneur.” - Ezra Musoke Daraja Impact

“Startups need to look into the concept of blended finance, that is grants + commercial capital. Grants shouldn’t be coming to the business to pay salaries but to develop your product.” - Ezra Musoke Daraja Impact

“Pain points on partnership between startups and established organizations:
- Misalignment of objectives and goals
- Rigidness of companies
- Communication gap between the startups and established companies with industry knowledge.” - Tunu Yongolo Funguo Tanzania

“Know where you want to get to, know your value proposition, what is your revenue generator, what have you put in and what do you need.”

Eric Massinda, FSDT Eric Massinda

“The key to partnerships is relationships. Looking for investment is a process, if investment is what you are looking for you need to start building relationships.” - Ivana Damjanov, UNCDF Tanzania. PesaTech Accelerator
