Startup Grind Featuring Jumoke Dada
Startup Grind is an intimate fireside chat with entrepreneurs and change makers from our community. These chats are a great way for fellow entrepreneurs to learn from a change maker's journey, best practices, and prove to be a more candid look at what change looks like on a more granular level. We believe that storytelling is an essential piece of growth and Jumoke's story is important for all, including fellow change makers who may not see themselves represented in the current ecosystem. Drinks and food will be provided!
