Greetings Rare Ones🎉,
Are you new here? Welcome to the family of Rare Ones. This is the Rare Birds Emerging Market Podcast Newsletter. Each week I send out this long form newsletter to our community of Rare Ones as I have conversations with early stage startup founders, ecosystem builders and angel investors from across emerging markets. This long form newsletter is a deep dive into one or several themes discussed in the podcast episodes.
The Rare Birds Emerging Podcast Newsletter is written for Emerging Market early stage startup founders, ecosystem builders, angel investors, those interested in emerging markets and the curious.
This week I share another installment of Conversations with Jo-Ann. This is the third installment of this series where I speak directly with our family of Rare Ones.
