It's our 200th episode!!!!

Techpoint Africa Podcast

Hey guys!

We've hit 200 episodes! And we had a special guest join us on the podcast today.

But first, here are today's stories:

• US SEC delists Tingo temporarily
• EdenLife pivoting to a marketplace
• MTN reported plans to acquire 9obile spectrum

We had fun in the studio today and had the chance to meet one of our fantastic fans, Chinedum Okerengwor, Founder of Royalti.io. Fun fact: he pitched his startup at Techpoint Africa's Pitchstorm in 2021.

We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed producing it, despite the many issues.

Enjoy!
