Ep #43 - North African Summit Mini Series - A Conversation with Silicone Badia
Today, we're sitting with Dr. Fawaz and Namek Zu bi who are the managing partners at Silicon Badia. They are a venture capital firm that partners with passionate, bold entrepreneurs to solve some of the world’s biggest problems.
We caught up with Dr. Fawaz and Namek at our North African summit in Tunis to unpack their latest developments on the continent in regards to their Africa-focused fund and get their take on the North African ecosystem.
Please excuse the sound quality of this interview, unfortunately, this was the only space that was private and quiet enough but being a glassed walled room the echo is present but the interview is audible and packed full of insights.
