Change as they say is inevitable. Whether it’s providing superior medical care to Nigerians through telemedicine, turning a company limited by guarantee into a company limited by shareholders, or even penning down my very last newsletter as Senior Editor at Ventures Africa. Let’s start with one of our top stories this week. The entity formally known as the Nigerian Stock Exchange has been ‘demutualized’ into the Nigerian Exchange Group. What this means is that it is now a publicly-traded company, and part of a larger non-holding company. In addition to the hope that this will unlock better opportunities, it is expected that the new entity will adapt to a profit-making stance. Also, in a recent interview with Ifeanyi Ossai, Founder & CEO of CribMD, a doctor house-call, and telemedicine company, we discuss technology as the fabric interwoven in our everyday lives. With dynamic leadership, experienced hands, and improved operating structures, I’m happy to say that the Africa of our dreams is still very much within reach.Until we meet again!Felicia Omari Ochelle Senior Editor, Ventures Africa
