Iyin Aboyeji, 2x Unicorn founder of Andela and Flutterwave.

Iyinoluwa Aboyeji calls himself an entrepreneur in the public interest. He is passionate about partnering with missionary talent and capital to build an African future. Iyinoluwa is the Founder & General Partner of Future Africa, a people-powered innovation fund that provides capital, coaching and community to mission-driven innovators turning Africa's biggest challenges into business opportunities.

Iyin is also a co-founder of Andela and was the former managing director of Flutterwave, a business building payments technology and infrastructure to connect Africa to the global economy. E' as he is fondly called as had a fantastic career so far, and we talked about it all in this video.
He shared a lot about how he grew up, how he got the opportunity to study at Waterloo, the initial experiments/startups he tried building before Andela, how he met Jeremy and other Andela Cofounders, why he left to join Flutterwave and why he left Flutterwave. He talked about The Future Africa Fund and so much more.

This is my favourite FounderConnect video YET. E' was so open and energetic, and I learned so so so much. It is a must-watch. I promise!
