Manage episode 311338012 series 3109669
This week on the podcast we had the pleasure of having Tekwane Mwendwa and Julien Brinson, who are the CEO and CTO of Asilimia respectively. Asilimia aims to make peer-to-peer M-Pesa transactions free. Having been on the market for a little over a year, Ksh 24,000,000 worth of digital transactions has been processed through their app and the team aims to do more once they relaunch the Asilimia app on the play store.
On the podcast, Tekwane shares his journey as an entrepreneur and how he navigates the ecosystem in order to ensure the success of his company.
Julien, a Stanford University graduate, also shares his engineering journey and how he ended up working at Asilimia.
