“I am the example of how a child with limited resources and access, without qualifications, has made an impact in EdTech, and therein lies my passion to uplift rural communities, specifically around education, as I had no access, and I could share that journey. I do feel we as a company have a unique story to tell and have already made significant inroads into impacting education for the better. Whilst empowering the entire value chain for our country.”
