Entrepreneurial Problem Solver | Henry Onyango Dare To Startup

    • Entrepreneurship

Growing up in a small town in Kenya, 2019 GSEA Global Finalist and Roometo Co-Founder Henry Onyango imagined a straightforward life for himself—go to school, get a good job, get married, etc. But in high school, Henry had a “serendipity moment” and started a technology consulting company with his classmate, the start of his entrepreneurial career.

Henry doesn’t consider himself an entrepreneur, rather someone who loves problem-solving when he sees an opportunity. He shares his thoughts and experiences about creating a joke-telling chat bot, navigating team dynamics and finding peace with letting go of ideas.

Finally, Henry discusses his view of money as a tool to create positive impacts on peoples’ lives and how implementing a universal basic income can lead to solving poverty.
