Entrepreneurs Talk Africa: Uncovering the Stories of Africa's Rising Business Stars

With this last episode of our founders series, we go into the business life of Jason Delorie, Innovation Executive, co-founder of two startups (this podcast and Tutor Me) and recipient of the Outstanding Young Entrepreneur Award.
How do you start a startup? Do you throw everything away and you go gang-ho, or you venture into the life of a side hustler to test the water? Today, Jason walks us into the shoes of a side hustler, provides explanation of why it could be a safer journey and explains when to pull the plug. Enjoy!

Our Founders Series - The Human Side of Entrepreneurship - With Gerald Ami

Today, we explore the human side of businesses. Before being entrepreneurs, founders are humans, men and women who commit time, energy and money to create something bigger than themselves. To talk about this, we welcome one of our cofounders, Gerald Ami.
Some listeners probably know that beside Entrepreneurs Talk Africa, you are also the cofounder of Mauritius Conscious, a company focused on Sustainable holidays to Mauritius, Rodrigues & Reunion Islands. But many may not know that Gerald founded Mauritius Conscious with his significant other, Romina.
Beyond the birth of Mauritius Conscious, Gerald walks us along the ups and downs of working with her wife, the human challenges and benefits, the biaises created by feelings and how to overcome them. No technology, pure authenticity. Enjoy!

Our Founders Series - Starting a Podcast

If there are dozens of blog posts, articles and videos on how to start a podcast, there are few looking back at the learning about starting one. After a year of recording, editing and publishing podcasts, our 52nd episode seemed the right moment to stop and reflect.

In this special episode, the closing both of our Founders Series and of our first year, Jason, Gerald and I wanted to come back on this year, that started before we recorded our first episode. Our goal with this episode, as startupers ourselves, is not only to reflect back but to provide high level guidance on how to start a podcast. Just do it, shall we say!

52 episodes later, we are about to start our second year and we are revealing what's cooking, or are we not? Well, if you want to know, you'll have to press the read button. Enjoy!
