Podcasts are fast becoming a thing here in Nigeria. Pulse has its own podcast network (you should check out the podcast), Starta has a podcast as does many other platforms. People are starting to come around to this media format.

That may be why the Meltwater Entrepreneurial School of Technology (MEST), one of Africa’s most prolific incubators, is also launching its own podcast series targeted at shining the light on what it takes to build a successful technology company in Africa in 2017.

According to a statement from MEST, which was made available to Pulse Tech, it hopes the podcast series will help provide insightful information to everyone who’s contemplating entering the space in whatever capacity — entrepreneurs, investors, venture capitalists and other stakeholders.
