Wanting to get paid for your creative skills is not greed or taboo. It's how you build a sustainable career in the creative space.

We explored this idea at a recent creative class organized by @btg.africa at @alx_rwanda Hub in Kigali. Honored to be invited by @feelgoodkru and @daniel.oo_ to facilitate the session.

It was refreshing and hands-on—participants developed their own personal monetization strategies for their skills.
It was eye-opening to hear the unique experiences creatives shared as they navigated getting paid for their work.

Experience has taught me that the key to getting paid as a creative is learning to channel your skills toward solving business problems. That way, a business can justify the spend.

Looking forward to hosting more of these sessions with our partners through @yanbuhub by @dozie.ebere

I thought I might reintroduce myself 😊.

What happens when you connect an entire financial ecosystem through a single network?

@mathieurw reflects on his role in launching eKash in 2022, when he was CEO of RSwitch, Rwanda’s national payment switch. By allowing banks and mobile money providers to connect through one system, eKash simplified transfers across providers while reducing the complexity and cost of maintaining separate connections. But as Mathieu explains, technological progress also comes with trade-offs, including the potential loss of some jobs.

If I ever had to teach 100,000 people, or even a million, how to build a six-figure creative business in Africa, I wouldn’t teach them my story. I’d look for the parts of my journey that are consistent what others who’ve built a creative business went through.

Those are the moments they’re most likely to face too, and seeing them early puts them in a much stronger position.

Here’s why. Much of what made my story extraordinary probably came down to luck that found me ready, and you can’t copy luck.

What you can do is give people the patterns that show up in nearly every successful journey. Those patterns become a foundation for making their own luck, because luck has to find you prepared. And even if it never finds them, that foundation will still change their lives.

That’s the energy we bring to every engagement at @yanbuhub , and it will shape every initiative we pilot next. by @dozie.ebere

Why do African economies pay more to borrow than other parts of the world?

@mathieurw explores how the perception of risk affects Africa’s access to global financing, adding billions in borrowing costs and putting pressure on economies across the continent. Drawing on his experience as an investment analyst at SouthBridge, Mathieu reflects on the efforts African governments are making to strengthen their economies, manage debt, and build the trust needed to access capital on better terms.

What does it take to build African businesses that can compete and earn trust on a global stage?

@mathieurw is a Rwandan entrepreneur, business adviser, and founder of RG Partners, an advisory firm helping businesses and institutions strengthen their financial management, governance, and strategies for growth. His work focuses on helping African organisations become more transparent, investment-ready, and better positioned to attract capital and compete in wider markets.

Having moved from Rwanda’s financial and public sectors into entrepreneurship, Mathieu has built his work around a central idea: capitalising African champions. He believes that strengthening the systems behind African businesses is essential to unlocking investment, increasing productivity, and building institutions that can create lasting economic impact.

This Sunday on Beyond Visible, Mathieu joins us for a conversation on building stronger African businesses, investment readiness, and what it takes to turn the continent’s economic potential into sustainable growth.

Access to capital starts with strong business fundamentals. But is the funding available right for our market?

@elihabimana explains why investors need confidence in a business’s ability to generate returns, while raising a bigger question about whether conventional funding models are suited to African businesses. Beyond securing investment, entrepreneurs need financing approaches that reflect the realities of the markets they operate in.

What does it take to build a business that people want to be part of?

@elihabimana reflects on how running Norrsken House Kigali has offered valuable lessons in building a business, from attracting and retaining members to finding the right pricing and creating a strong community. Supporting entrepreneurs also means understanding the very challenges they face in building and sustaining their own ventures.

Africa’s biggest challenges could also be its biggest opportunities.

@elihabimana shares how Norrsken approaches entrepreneurship by supporting founders who use technology to tackle problems across healthcare, agriculture, infrastructure, and regional integration. But building solutions at this scale takes more than good ideas. It takes a community where entrepreneurs, funders, and other stakeholders can connect and work together.

We all have sides of ourselves that the world doesn’t always get to see.

In this clip, @bobmugaba explores the three aspects of our personality, including the side that pushes us to step outside the familiar, explore, and express ourselves more freely. Sometimes, that side doesn’t need to be seen directly. It can find its way into the work we create and the stories we tell.
