What does it really take to pivot from a global tech giant like Google into the unpredictable world of entrepreneurship in Africa?
In this episode, Femi Awoniyi sits down with Sharon, his former colleague at Google, to share the real story behind his journey from leading innovation at Google to wearing the many hats as a founder.
Femi opens up about the reality of his transition into entrepreneurship: the benefits, freedoms, but also the roadblocks along the way. He shares lessons on building resilience, his bold vision for scaling investment into Africa through Magna Collective and Vester AI and strategies to strengthen the investor ecosystem.
Femi digs deep into the why behind My Innovation Story. He emphasizes on the importance of telling African founder stories and how sharing these lessons can help the next generation of entrepreneurs navigate their own journeys.
If you’re a founder, innovator, someone who has ever wondered what it takes to adapt when things don’t go as planned, and still build something meaningful, or just someone curious about the future of African business, this episode is a blueprint for understanding yourself, sharpening your strengths, and building sustainably in tough markets.
