Hello BellaNaijarians,

We’re bringing to you episodes from the second season of podcast series: The Building the Future Podcast with Dotun Olowoporoku of Starta.

We have entrepreneurs, industry leaders, founders of startups who are writing the narrative that will be told about the African continent, telling their stories directly. This second season is in partnership with The British Council Nigeria.

Adeyinka Adewale, co-founder and CEO of Kudi.ai, a financial service provider that allows you pay people and businesses over instant messaging platforms, is the guest on this episode.

Adewale is a graduate of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and the Y Combinator Winter 2017 batch, where they raised an additional seed funding from a group of angel investors in the valley and in Nigeria.

Adewale, in this episode, discusses how impactful the Y Combinator program was; how he juggled being a final year student and running his business; and the make-or-break challenge for the Kudi.ai team when they were about to launch.
