π EP. 21 How to Invest in Yourself | How Meenah raised $900,000 fund for Metric App & Scaled her Startup organically to 100+ countries in 6 months after launch | Investing at 25 Podcast
Description
This week on Investing at 25 podcast, Saniya and Meenah sit down to talk about the startup culture in Pakistan and Meenah's extraordinary journey π
I met Meenah somewhere in 2015 or 2016 while she was the Head of Strategy and Accelerator at Invest2Innovate Pakistan. Since then, I've always seen her as a passionate supporter of the entrepreneurship ecosystem in Pakistan. She's helped incubate, accelerate numerous startups in Pakistan since that time. She's currently a Partner at Karavan.vc, a venture capital fund actively investing in high-growth startups across Pakistan.
Beyond this, after she graduated as a Fulbright Scholar from Babson College (World's number 1 school for Entrepreneurship), she returned to teach Entrepreneurship at one of the top Business Schools in Pakistan, alongside trying many different side hustles and helping young entrepreneurs in Pakistan.
Right now, as a wonderful mom to a 3 yr old, she's building one of the fastest growing startups in Pakistan, Metric, that has organically scaled to 100+ countries in 6 months! π
