Forty years a tech bro. That was the title of my session at Moonshot 2026 by @TechCabal : "Forty Years a Tech Bro: What It Takes to Build Something That Lasts", moderated by @FuadXIV of @StartArchiving Ideas are cheap. Implementation is the real deal. That was one of five lessons I hope the room took away: 1.Create value, not slide decks. People buy value, not just products or solutions. 2.Find a real market gap, then execute professionally and cost-effectively. 3.Keep building new skills and competence. 4. Build a great culture, anchored in proper corporate governance. 5.Have faith in yourself, your nation and your God. The fifth felt especially real in that venue. The Wole Soyinka Centre for Culture and Creative Arts, formerly the National Theatre, has been beautifully restored through the commitment of the @cenbank and the Bankers' Committee. From the rooftop, the Blue Line rail gliding past showed Lagos as the modern city it is becoming, and added colour to the skyline. Congratulations to Tomiwa Aladekomo and the TechCabal team for taking over the entire theatre and truly living the theme, Courage & Conviction. The future we build should not come at the expense of the heritage we are responsible for preserving. Which of the five lessons do you find hardest to practise? #Moonshot2026 #Entrepreneurship #Execution #Lagos
