Most startups in Ghana don’t fail because of bad ideas. They fail because of structure.

Kwasi Okrah, A Lawyer & Financial Analyst, breaks down the funding mistakes, legal blind spots, and financial decisions that quietly destroy Ghanaian startups before they ever scale.

1. From equity dilution traps to compliance risks.

2. From investor readiness to governance failures. This is the conversation most founders avoid, but desperately need.

If you are:

• Raising capital

• Registering a business

• Scaling too quickly

• Or struggling to get investor trust
  

This episode will challenge your perspective on law, finance, and growth.

Because sometimes the biggest threat to your startup is the structure on which you built it.
