Effective January 1, 2026, the fiscal framework for Several African Technology companies shifts from an "Incentive-Based" regime to a "Residency-Based" compliance model. We have audited the Act. Here are the three structural risks for founders. 🧵

We advise a "Residency Audit" for all dual-jurisdiction startups before Q4 2025. The goal is to align your management structure with your legal domicile. Failure to do so creates a "Force of Attraction" risk where local operations contaminate the global holding structure.

The Nigeria Tax Act 2025 represents a modernisation of the fiscal landscape. It penalises informality but rewards structural discipline.

We formally rejected a partnership with a well-capitalised founder who approached us to scale his backend. His structural insolvency drove the decision, as his architecture had accrued so much technical debt that the expense of rescuing it was greater than the cost of simply burning it down.

If you are engineering for Day 1 then use whatever tools you want, but if you are engineering for Day 1,000 you must own your primitives. The most expensive decision you will ever make is the one that looks the cheapest on the invoice but taxes your liquidity for years to come.

We have two slots open for Strategic Briefings in January to ensure your Q1 roadmap is built on bedrock rather than debt. Let's build it right the first time. illusionservices.com

A must-read thread from our founder, @DrSilverstone, on why our process begins with 'Strategic Immersion,' not code. This is how we de-risk billion-dollar ideas.
Most founders are (rightfully) terrified of their tech partner. A startup founder friend told me on Monday that his previous dev shop disappeared for a month, only to return with a buggy app and a 30% budget overrun. I'd call it a "failure of process."

Those who do eventually get exhausted from answering the same questions again and again - who wouldn't? And some students miss their chance entirely. When OSCEs (clinical exams) arrive, the pressure is brutal because many of the students didn't have the opportunity to practice.

For students, this means walking into exams (and real life) less prepared. ClerkSmart helps you practice clerking, investigations and management of patients. Get exposed to more patients, practice clerking for all your OSCE's (and more) and become a competent clinician
