Quote - “What I like the most about building in Africa and building
for Africa is that everything is so greenfield.”
The Afropolitan Podcast spotlights Afropolitans who aren’t afraid to
step into the unknown and walk in purpose. With this podcast we hope
to empower Africans in the Diaspora to harness their full potential
and contribute to the development of a bold and progressive black
community.
Our guests will share their working formulas, the hard facts about
leaving familiar terrain, embracing the unknown, and staying relevant
afterwards.
This episode features Nadayar Enegesi, CEO and Co-Founder of Eden Life
Inc.; a tech-driven home management platform in Africa providing

He is passionate about upgrading the home lifestyle and bridging the
gap between service providers and service demanders through tech.
