Our Story: From Struggle to Support

My journey into empowering entrepreneurs began with my own startup, GUSA. My vision was to connect talented Tanzanian artisans directly with art buyers worldwide, cutting out middlemen and making their incredible work accessible beyond tourist visits. However, I quickly hit a wall. I had passion, but lacked the knowledge and resources to build the digital infrastructure needed to bring GUSA online. There was no readily available help for someone like me.

This challenge ignited a new path. I embarked on a long journey, pursuing computer science at university and teaching myself to code. In 2016, I received a life-changing scholarship from Gainesville Dev Academy to learn mobile and web app development. Crucially, Amir Rubin (founder of Paracosm) and Augi Lye (CEO of Trendy Entertainment and owner of ToneRite) generously covered my travel and accommodation to Gainesville, where I also gained invaluable experience at the HackerHouse acceleration program and interning at Paracosm Inc (acquired by Occipital, Inc in 2017).

Though GUSA ultimately didn't receive funding, that experience solidified a profound promise to myself: I would dedicate my efforts to ensuring no other Tanzanian entrepreneur or SME faces the same barriers I did. I saw a vital need to help local businesses get online, even with limited or no budget, providing the websites, apps, and social media presence they need to showcase their ideas to the world.

This personal mission is the very heart of Printiago. We're here to offer the support I once wished I had. While the journey is still challenging, I've already helped over a dozen businesses establish their online footprint, and my greatest joy comes from playing a part in their success. My dream is to assist at least 500 startups and solo entrepreneurs, especially women-led businesses and those in underserved areas, in building their digital presence before I leave this world. Despite the struggles, I feel a deep calling to fulfill this mission right here in East Africa.
