Our Story.

Founded in 2023 in Harare, Pique Squid was born from a singular obsession: to build a bridge between African enterprise and the global digital frontier.

Breaking the Cycle

For too long, African businesses have been forced to adapt to technologies built elsewhere—systems that don't account for our unique infrastructure, our scale, or our ambitions.

Walter Maira, our founder, saw this discrepancy as an opportunity. Not just to sell services, but to engineer an infrastructure that belongs to the continent.
