This episode was recorded months ago during the initial COVID lockdown period.

Regina took what she learned working in Silicon Valley with Singularity University, particularly the abundance and exponential mindset, and is creating an ecosystem in Kenya for entrepreneurs where abundant thinking is at the foundation. This gave life to Kizo Ventures, Kizo being a Swahili word that means abundance.

Abundance mindset - a mindset that focuses on what is possible and what you have

Scarcity mindset- a mindset that focuses on limitations and what is not working

Regina is trying to change and scale the abundant mindset among African youth entrepreneurs and is hopeful that she will be able to do so but cognizant that it will take time. Kizo Ventures is training youth entrepreneurs about how to work collaboratively and equip them with the skills that they need to be globally competitive.

The Kizo investment catalyst is preparing entrepreneurs for investment and then connecting them with investors in their network.
