Welcome to the Culture FYI’RS Podcast. Culture FYI’RS is a creative collaboration meetup held weekly at the FYI Campus in Los Angeles. Each week, we feature a fireside chat with a guest, showcase projects being worked on by members of the FYI community, and share product updates for FYI.AI, the creative collaboration app co-founded by will.i.am.

This week, we dive deep into a transformative conversation with visionary entrepreneur and tech innovator, Tonee Ndungu. In a dynamic exchange with Culture FYI’R Community Member Kristin Juel, Tonee shares his insights on the intersection of education, fintech, and AI, particularly in the context of Africa's burgeoning potential.
As an advocate for the youth, Tonee discusses his journey and highlights the importance of having a clear vision for the future. With a focus on the unique challenges and opportunities present in Africa, he emphasizes the need for innovative solutions in education and finance to empower the next generation. Tonee reflects on his experiences launching platforms like Kytabu & Tribbe, which aim to reshape financial literacy and educational access in Ghana.
Join us as we explore the cultural shifts driven by technology, the rise of AI in everyday life, and the exciting potential for creative industries in Africa. Tonee's passion for rewriting African history and leveraging local resources to build sustainable futures is both inspiring and thought-provoking.
