Welo: Zanele Abraham Matome #6
<p>In this episode, we have a conversation with Zanele Abraham Matome. She is a world class entrepreneur and visionary who has turned her sights on her newest project, Welo. Welo is a Medicine delivery company that provides families with peace of mind and convenience when dealing with every day medicine purchases or monthly subscriptions. Zanele knew she had the mindset for the startup scene and when she saw how inaccessible medical care could be for the people in her community, especially during a global pandemic, an idea was born. During our conversation, she touches on incubator spaces, ideas for Africa and how to take a bet on yourself.
