7:34 am
my name is somewhat some, some nazzo, the co founder and then, and martha operations for each on, on. what we do as we were here, that is on a fisherman who yes thing the coach from them straight. come from the whole the chain, middle man, the fish, my reason we're sending it to the market. boy, then i will email you or a good that doesn't do it. well, i mean he needs to be weighed or get her to, to send it to her to send it. is there any way you can look at it? we are using technology such as medical young up we, we co design and builds with the fisherman was fisherman coming with the new boxes

7:36 am
. mm. i love so many different things about gonna i'm a proud canyon. i left the creativity in the because with the tenacity of the african spirits or the canyon spirit. my name is regina hulu, and i'm the ceo of shawn co academy. we teach defined skills, mostly digital and technical skills, tact targeted on women and girls. so for me, i think if you look at the essential skills, there's reading, writing, literacy, and i think now quoting as like the 4th one, it's the language of the teacher. when i started of my journey of founding the company, one of the 1st problems i was trying to solve was to change the single story. so that was my facebook so strong called means unique
7:37 am
in my local language, which is cheap. so we wanted to provide unique solutions, you know, to the challenge of getting more women into the technology space. and also we connect them to dignified and compelling way. and to finance shift is growing in gala over the past 3 or 4 years and they've been a lot of hubs supporting young people to going to into partnership. so the a lot of duncan's happiness sometimes ends up alicia can seem like a very lonely journey. and from the meeting of our youngest and happiness inspires me to understand that i'm not alone. it allows me to also lead from the experiences and, and sort of engage with somebody who, who gets it. because sometimes when you speak to other people that are not independent, they may not necessarily understand things
7:38 am
. then we and i'll get them into the dentist of in china. yes, i think we should that because a lot of getting into it. yes, i was born in uncle started and i was one edition. okay. right. yeah you you, we used to go to the c side on my. * any day of, or like i said, tuesdays where, where the shipment good to see me on subsidies that didn't known as your plan. is that a beach by infusion? well, when of that,
7:39 am
and then even now going back there to see what i see that you realize i know it's something has to do something really has to change something. yeah. yeah. well, you see that yeah, lively woods has more in boot is rather boring down. and that is really not, not, not that big. okay. now as you explained the model i had about the middle men, can you tell me more about the middle man? what do they do in the value chain of fishing? we have the de la, the of mall. good. de la, yahoo may be a wholesaler and a retailer. all right. so those chambers, chain of people are all present. hello. so you how the fisherman bringing the couch to either the colonel or not would themselves it onto a fish mummy. always probably like a ball supply to supplies to i've that deal this. why do all these processes have to happen? why can't the retail i does go straight to the fisherman?
7:40 am
that seems to be a question that i am sure if i had on our marriage, not in the sense that you realize that it is like a community. okay. so we are basically trying to cut off dr. meadow, which i'm taking it directly from the, from the integral in infancy. mm hm. oh, change is difficult and i think and should ma'am, is in a space that is rooted in culture and tradition. this is where i see his biggest challenge to be able to introduce technology without upsetting the balance without making the physical meaning to feel like what is this aiden you think that's coming in to disrupt? how things have been done and how things have been passed on
7:41 am
i really like that. and shannon understands how to bring convenience to the enzyme, which is people like me in the other. because when i started my journey of founding, the company i once had africans to be able to solve their own problems and to be able to export innovation to the rest of the world. and for me, one of the things that i realize was that technology was really going to be a tool that will help us. so
7:42 am
if you look at the ecosystem and gamma, when people talk about besides ition done mostly talking about mobile, maybe able to use the funds. i think it goes beyond that. so are we able to automate the governments? are we able to go form just look how exports to him to global? so we able to explore not only our natural resources, but also achilles, also reach side human capital. so i think it goes past just a smartphone. there several areas if it's done well, can really support like diana. as a 3rd world, country gunner has been quite peaceful and politically economically stable. however, i feel like this timeline of development is running behind schedule when it comes to the fastest growing economy, paste. so i am vision to revolutionize development and gone out by industrialization. i mean, you have
7:43 am
a global perspective. so where do you see the role of digitalization and the vision of africa? i mean, the biggest drug in this world to day. funny enough, his why fi a child needs it? a mother need the father need that slim, young, fat, whatever they all need it. and so we're moving quite fast with technology and technology is bridging with industrialization. and so that's why i go the freedom class. i knew that there was a future for that kind of currency in terms of digitization and i saw the vision with african free trade. i realize that the next biggest in that will help is free trade to trade amongst 54 countries and do cross by the movements with different currencies would only be through black chain. the freedom network, it's supposed to be one of africa's number one block chain that i'm partnering with people from all over the world. we want to build, you know,
7:44 am
block chain development centers, and we want to be the headquarters of this me i, i think currently one of the main challenges that we have having such a youthful population is the youth had the solution. they are losing who they want to give up. i want to make sure that hiring young people to believe and, and believe in, you know, things made here and things from here and to wants to stay and make up. why don't we bring all the opportunities that seem to be concentrated in the cry? why don't we share development course?
7:45 am
hi my name is mousy. christina g song. i am the ceo. so my life, i came to the origin when i was my yes, the up always with your which is there for the region in garner. at that time i got my 1st contact to with who are with men who travel form the various communities and walk for 35 kilometers to so the up could use. then i feel like i want to do something about it. when i grew up
7:46 am
with, we went with women within the share value chain where they could use quality sheer butter and ship, who does like soaps in motion for as the business idea of. so my life is we want to ensure that we bring these women and your household about their property, like we all know that the, some people who go to bed not know you when the last meal for this will come from. and that is wrong. this is the 1st stage of shared back up with us when they're not as big the women have to sort it and how can you tell when they're not as bad as easily, very dark black and has from
7:47 am
a lice in it. so you have to remove the life in any other one that you don't want. but yes, this thing is very important to you to determine the quality of the nazi the better you have. at the end of the day we believe strongly docs while she produces should not continue to leave on less than $2.00 in the account hall at $1900000000.00 sheer industry. so we combine access to resources like logistics machineries to improve dia, production process. trainees and conservation ah is softer than
7:48 am
coco? bye, say? yes or beautiful. i love though. you go from this to this year and then you have then now it's ready for packaging and selling. yeah. hanging out with the women. i see how c d us. the work is form stage once is there's 100, you know, it's is like the a 100 stages. what is in it for the women? for the last year we engage or 2000 women. and we said the target that by the end of the year they should get 18 percent additional income. so we target by is more care about austin. i believe i saw together with them. we agree that is the amount you should buy this tornado of share nuts or better. and then when we do that, the money goes to add up to what do the women or get at the end of the day. and how
7:49 am
do you attract your international clients? like, how do you get by is to come in and know about summer life and want to purchase your products? yes, so that's why i was taking the video. silly pictures we have. so customer segments, we have the retailers and the manufacturers. so the retailers are usually people that we find the social media platforms like facebook, instagram, so we put the pictures there. we put more our products on these social media platforms, and we attract that customer segment. and most of them are in europe and asia. tar. emma an ad that in yeah, and twitter as somebody is sending her number, my room number is so i'm not able to lobo and so my life
7:50 am
and the one lubbock bureau are so similar that you given a demo to want to piano while i am a fan game ladder, what am i to me? well, carmen, i have not understood the definition of hardwick or in till i met those women. i don't even think i fully appreciated my privilege and i met those women. ah, i'm impressed that. so my life is making a difference. i'm impressed that is led by a young dynamically like mousie. and was she das, from training to using social media to market and brand hair products, to creating these well branded samples and that she distributes. and i'm impressed that she has a really amazing story with my mom is something you think we should do
7:51 am
a lot of quality or even the packaging. do you think is equal friendly for the markets with oh, yeah. and also help with traceability. bias call, it isn't in no way to some inform in case they want to maybe help that community. they could just walk in and do something. that's fine. yes. so maybe i kind of show you some of the pictures of my trip in germany. one of the reason i, when they used to work with lane, how did you, my market regulates the cosmetic and food ingredients that come from africa. and i went for a treat fair as well. yeah. this a trip for in berlin. i went there to meet buyers, we've started signing contracts with them and also the, the careful about certification. so we have to get our vacation ready something
7:52 am
and when i look at the apparition region, i can see that 1st of all the social development kick was ma shed equally. i'm so surprised that in some places, you know, you have to walk some places to charge your mobile phone or to just get access to life. which i think in the 21st century is not a luxury item, but a key necessity. i really see so much resources, but it's missing the opportunity piece with when i 1st started my journey of wanting to become a computer scientist, i said in the machine diversity, when i graduate,
7:53 am
had the only mentors that i knew of, especially with in the tech space where steve jobs and bill gates lead to, i don't know any women this is my 1st office. so when i started to think about starting a business and started conceptualizing stronghold, and i had to move my key to stay with my parents, because i didn't, i couldn't afford to have an all my own apartment. and my father had free internet in the house. when i decided i wanted to start my own business, i was really concerned about how my parents would react. my dad was always on board because my father felt that i was being held back in terms of what i could do to what are your future plans or the studies yourself? yeah, she just let me. it seems like opportunity death centered in a chronicle man caused by young people outside is like nothing is happening for them. so i really want to do more for especially women and girls outside bring more
7:54 am
pushing issues for them. and then them set up a bigger space here and there may be satellites basis. and also, i always, i'm sad there's because people asked me, do i think about expanding in other countries? i don't know then, but for me i'm very keen on deepening my impacts and gonna, yeah, i still want to make sure that, you know, and women code is a women and technology is normally gonna i'm status your business in production of natural hair care products. so i want to go bigger by making international. this is this analytics. if my company gets bigger, i should be able to and i spend what data i apply in house,
7:55 am
make use of the details in my business. he in the line is that when he wants to do coding, they all seem to be difficult and be know when people are thinking kind to do it. so when i told my family about it, they were happy. i knew she, i'm going to explore to get in that lake and doing something like this will help me and i'm a huge out of gunner. i love that there's potential anyway, because we have so many challenges. there's also, but she needs to provide solution. so i like that challenge provide from opportunities to do something new and innovative. it also challenges you to think outside of the box and come up with something different. ah, there is a little thing in the right direction. the challenge is the piece. so i,
7:56 am
we could have done so much more by now and given the site that we had democrats, a commission and english, the can nation. we have a lot of natural resources and we have a great, we population. and i think if anybody come to like, gonna come in with
