    Episode 70 - Marta Uetela

    Episode 70 - Marta Uetela

    Marta Uetela is an industrial designer who is a very energetic and positive individual that from a selfless act, started an organisation that is changing the lives of many, one step at a time. She won the second-best green startup in Africa, the number one prize in the 6th edition of the competition SeedStars in Maputo, and the 193rd Commonwealth Point of Light, but those are not even her most significant achievements. Guiding us by connecting the dots, she explains how design, welding, being encouraged by her father and brothers at a young age to get involved in mechanics, and another myriad of unusual events got her in the position she is today.

    Three Continents, One Data-Driven eCommerce Startup and a Baby | Ann Pichestapong

    Three Continents, One Data-Driven eCommerce Startup and a Baby | Ann Pichestapong

    In this episode, we meet Ann, founder and CEO of DataCue, who not only launched her own company but did it with her husband as her co-founder whilst travelling across Central and South America for their honeymoon! I hear you... is she crazy ; )

    Successfully securing investment from Startup Chile, despite being foreign nationals (learn how they did it as you listen) Ann and her husband Sharam, a former data scientist at Trip Advisor set about creating a solution that would give small and medium-sized businesses access to big data solutions normally available only to the Amazons of the world.

    Discover how they managed to work together 24-hours a day with a young baby along for the ride too, how they overcame some big assumptions they made about doing business in the LATAM region and how they overcame a potentially disastrous situation.

    With many more valuable insights about startup life across 3 continents - DataCue now has a presence in Chile and the LATAM region, Europe and Asia.

    Advancing Learning for Millions of Kids Through Gamification | Lucrezia Bisignani

    Lucrezia wanted to be an actress and started her entrepreneurial journey when she was 8 years old, selling items to give to those most in need. This multi-award winning Italian entrepreneur, and Forbes 30 under 30, is now living in Kenya for her company Kukua, which has created an African child heroine called Sema who empowers girls and children with literacy and numeracy skills, and gives them the confidence to change the world! Lucrezia's parents and relatives approach to the failure taught her to face difficult situations like almost going bankrupt before pivoting and raising funds from prestigious Venture Capital investors. From the cover of international magazines to the small Kenyan villages, this talented entrepreneur has the ambition to impact millions of lives and create one of the most successful edtech companies on the African continent.
