#1: The Nigerian Startup Ecosystem w/ Chika Umeadi

Our guest chat is with Chika Umeadi, founding partner of Tiphub (https://tiphub.vc/), a Nigerian American that is helping African startups navigate the US landscape and help bridge the gap between what African startups need as well as the expectations of the US Startup ecosystem.
