Hi Friends!
Interviewing an Entrepreneur
We interviewed Ali sheikh who is one of the Director at Amid tech.
The questions we asked him as follows.
1)Sir, you have a successful startup. How did this come into being? Where did you get this idea?

I sincerely appreciate your ideas, Stephen. And the way you phrase them and act on them AND talk about your results.
