I moved from Zimbabwe to China to study Mandarin then ended up staying there for 8 years. During that time, I co-founded two entrepreneurial ventures, did seed-stage venture capital then led the global growth of a startup. Now I advise businesses in Silicon Valley and share the lessons I learnt on these adventures.
