Building Financial Access — Kalule Guwatudde on Investing in Africa
Kalule Guwatudde shares his journey from Uganda to the U.S., from launching a high school wiki to founding Bora Bond, a fintech platform helping the African diaspora invest in African government bonds.
Kalule opens up about navigating layered identities — African, immigrant, and Black — and the friction of using your voice in spaces that weren’t built for you. He talks about the emotional toll of entrepreneurship, the clarity of conviction, and what it means to see far like a giraffe… and act with purpose.
