Startup World Cup 2023: Darryl Epstein, Founder of Delta Scan (Johannesburg, South Africa)
Filmed at the San Francisco Hilton
December 1st, 2023
Delta Scan, which develops engineering drone-based inspection technology and digital analysis, has won the African leg of the Start-Up World Cup Pitch Competition at Africa Tech Festival.
Delta Scan was one of eight start-up owners vying for the top prize at Africa Tech Festival in Cape Town last week. The prize, ,globally sponsored by Pegasus Tech Ventures, will see company MD Darryl Epstein join 49 other entrepreneurs from around the world at the finale in San Francisco, USA. The grand prize winner at that event will walk away with $1-million to plough back into their business.
“We’re on a good trajectory and it helps fuel the fire. We’re looking forward to taking this to the global stage,” said MD Darryl Epstein.
Sawyer Tadano, Pegasus’s South-East regional manager, said: “This was a fantastic event. There was lots of energy and variety in the pitches seeking to solve different types of problems. It was very interesting to see how Africans are solving problems.”
Delta Scan uses drone technology to transform the time-consuming and costly task of gathering information to inspect infrastructure like bridges and buildings and performing a real-time health check on these assets.
“In the engineering world inspections are flawed, and mostly it’s an art of guesswork,” Epstein said.
The drone captures data, which is then used to build a 3D model.
“We can analyse a building in a matter of minutes - which would usually take weeks for an engineering company to complete. The 3D analytical model is so precise it can see an ant on a building.”
Other pitches at the competition included innovative education solutions, mobile money apps, job recruitment and a beauty app and solution from Kenya that connects beauticians and clients in a seamless environment that rewards loyalty from all stakeholders.
One of the competition judges, Zachariah George of Launch Africa Ventures, said: “It was a tough call but we had to make sure the winner could put their business on the global stage.”
Earlier in the week, visitors at Africa Tech Festival were given a master class on the dos and don’ts of fundraising. And surprisingly, establishing a good rapport with potential funders came out as the top tip.
Eric Osiakwan of Chanzo Capital said: “Investors look for chemistry and that comes from your storytelling. Ask yourself, how do I make a connection with that person which is less transactional?
“Tell them what you are doing and why you are doing it. After the initial connection, the rest becomes easier. But you must tell your investor something that sticks out and stays in their mind, something unique.”
Joining this list of reasons why investors say no, is not having enough information at hand.
Lara Rosman of UVU Accelerate said: “Last year I spoke to over 100 start-ups who complained they were just not getting funding. I went on a road show to find out why and investors say they just aren’t getting enough information during pitches. You have one shot in that room to present. There is no harm in, before your pitch, sending an email to see what they require from you.”
Sherif Nessim of Jedar Capital says timing is imperative. “You need to know when to start raising funds, what type of equity and value. And don’t raise more than you need. Also consider what amount you want to raise and how much equity you want to give away.”
Start-ups were a big part of the festival this year, with a dedicated zone, triple the size of previous events.

This is Sylvia Cater. Came across tons of photos of your Dad from the old Kawasaki Days and jis trips to new orleans. Would love for you to have them.
He was made for the cameras. He always recorded his life story and made impacts everywhere he went. I miss you bro I remember when we exchanged phone numbers after we played you guys at Labette and we became cool after we beat you guys haha 😢
@@Finetouchautopros thank you for leaving such a meaningful comment!! Taking it back to Labette CC 🙏
Rest in heaven King!!
Mr president joe might have do things well especially during this hard times where the world is on the verge of conflict everywhere But we have to appreciate his service to the nation ❤
Saludo desde nicaragua para pricess Dios bendiga
Jerry Cardinale's entire spiel from the 2:30 mark is an absolute nothingburger. It is the epitome of empty words. "Content is king" "Technology disintermediation" and "An increasing premium on the live event and interactivity." what the fuck is he talking about? It's empty words from a man who's going to swoop in and do nothing but get rich for himself while further debasing what little is left of american civil society. Go with "the fan is going to be much more active" part of his speech - i challenge anybody to put any actual discernable, tangible meaning to those sounds that came out of his mouth. It's a "deepity". It's a puff of air. It's bullshit. And americans no longer have the critical listening or thinking skills to discern this.
Nijayvisa naboGogo 🎉
Habría que preguntarles a los ormur, que piensan cuando miran a la nicaragüense, bella, humilde y triunfadora, enarnolando la bandera Azul y Blanco de Nicaragua.
Выходи за меня замуж!!!

Must say Miss Universe is one of the best beautiful I have ever watched my whole entire life. She has that sophisticated look / girly at the same time / serious so to speak, perfect silhouette. I am a Filipina sharing my opinion.
La pobre MISS HONDURAS, detrás de SHEYNNIS, deberían caminar, ir a la par. Sheynnis tiene mejor cuerpo, pero la MISS HONDURAS tiene mejor ROSTRO. Además, ambas Centroamericanas!
This gentleman is an alpha👍🏾
