Hey Eavesdroppers, this week we are joined by Marek Zmyslowski.

Marek is Polish-born entrepreneur and executive, focused on Online Business and Renewable Energy, passionate about Frontier and Emerging Markets.

We had a blast talking with Marek, firstly about his personal story working in Africa, then expanding to the larger situation regarding poverty, lack of infrastructure and Geopolitics. We are sure you will appreciate Marek's insight around these topics and we feel we certainly came away with a better understanding of whats happening on the continent.

Please check out Marek's website and buy the book here...
