What an powerful and insightful Techpreneurship journey @Mariatheresa_tz, thanks for sharing the key lessons learned while starting and managing @mobileafya. Such an inspiration to othet #Tech #Founders
We learned how it started from curiosity "How will Africa look if everyone can easily access health information?" --> to taking action. Lesson "Don't walk around a problem" waiting for others to solve, you may have a key contribution to make for a solution.
We learned about learning to get out of the comfort zone, make necessary wise choices and utilise available resources around to move from a problem to a solution.
