Walking The Talk With Rebecca Enonchong

Walking The Talk With Rebecca Enonchong

There are many who aspire to the title of “activist”, but few walk the tweet. But Cameroonian-born Rebecca Enonchong is the real deal. Rebecca’s technical and leadership track record at the highest level has led to her being widely considered one of the most credible ambassadors for Africa’s burgeoning tech scene. We can at least vouch for this: Rebecca is not afraid of the truth. Her commitment to helping emerging entrepreneurs on the continent by sharing openly the details of the challenges, failures and successes of her career is refreshing. And as both a tech pro working her way up the corporate ladder, and later, a tenacious startup founder determined to design and build ladders of her own, hers has been quite a journey. Besides being the Founder & CEO of enterprise application solutions company, Apps Tech, Rebecca is also a trusted advisor in matters of tech and innovation to many of Africa’s most influential brands and businesses. When she’s not flying between Douala and Washington DC on Apps Tech business, Rebecca maintains a busy speaking schedule that takes her all over the world, and she serves on several boards, for the likes of the African Business Angel Network and VC4Africa. It’s fair to say that we're more than a little stoked that Johannesburg made it into her travel itinerary. Music Credits: All music by Brian Lupiya. Used with permission.
