Challenges & Opportunities for Africans Making Products for Africans (with Abisoye Falabi, Senior PM @ TradeDepot)

An interview with Abisoye Falabi. Abisoye is a passionate technologist, community builder and educator who is currently Senior Product Manager at TradeDepot, a Nigerian commerce and fintech platform.

We talk about a lot, including:

  • His work with TradeDepot, the problems they solve and their plans to go pan-African
  • Some of the challenges of moving across borders into new territories and how this affects scaling
  • How he started out in tech and moved to product management after seeing how developers were disconnected from customers & stakeholders
  • His various roles spanning tech & product, and whether he agrees that having a CPTO is good or not
  • Why it's important for Africans to make software solutions for Africans, and how they have to be 100x better than established solutions
  • Some of the challenges in building products for the African market, and how they might be addressed
  • Some of the common mistakes VC firms make when investing in African tech, and some of the opportunities they are missing
  • His passion for education, how he teaches to learn, and some of his work with community building and working on courses for Pluralsight

And much more!
