ATTP Conversations is a podcast from A Talented Tribe with Purpose: a Lagos-born movement raising young Nigerians through principled conversations about purpose, character, career, and identity.
Each episode draws from the ATTP Coffee series: live conversations facilitated by Akintunde Idowu and team, where young people gather to think through the principles that govern a meaningful life. Just honest conversations about what it actually takes to build a life that works.
For young Africans who are serious about becoming who they were made to be.

You finally find an idea worth building, then discover that somebody else is already doing it. Is the idea now useless? Has it been stolen? Should you hide every detail? In this follow-up to “You Are Already an Innovator,” Akintunde explains why similar ideas can coexist, what originality actually requires, how intellectual property works at a basic level and why learning faster may protect a young builder more effectively than secrecy.
