Hi! I’m Chris, the founder of Sourcing Sprints. Our team is based in Lagos, Nigeria 🇳🇬 but we source talent from all over the world.

If you’re an early-stage startup founder looking for talent, book an intro call here. We operate very differently from most recruiting firms.

Background

💰 7 years in hardware VC at Bolt. First hire. Invested three funds ($3M → $32M → $82M) in ~70 early stage startups.
📚 Left VC in 2019 to take a ~1.5 year long learning sabbatical and return to emerging market entrepreneurship.

Fundraising strategy + investor intros. I don't know that many angels but can help you think through how to fundraise and might be able to help you meet pre-seed / seed funds.

Development theory / effective altruism. Here's a video I made on global inequality. Here's my basic theory of development along with some notes from books I've read. I’m excited about evidence-based interventions that reduce inequality and suffering like GiveDirectly and GiveWell.
Self-directed education. Here’s a site I made on “Learning Sabbaticals”. Here’s the curriculum I created for my own learning sabbatical.
