This episode, we have on Idan Jaan who is CEO and Cofounder of Fundrr. A platform that uses tech to provide easy and simple access to finance for SMEs in South Africa. The sound quality isn't our usual standard in this episode, but it's well worth sticking with, because Idan gives us a taste of what it was like to startup and get rejected by investors around 60 times, and how it isn't all rainbows and unicorns. We also go into the Dunning-Kruger Effect and how it contributed to both our developments.
