In February, the Ready to Launch: A MENA Entrepreneurship Podcast will feature key players in the Jordanian and regional entrepreneurship ecosystem to better understand what they offer, what is lacking, and how they can be strengthened to improve the performance of local startups. To kick off this discussion co-hosts Merissa Khurma and Rajae Sahouri spoke with Marwan Juma, a serial entrepreneur, former Jordanian Minister of Communication and Information Technology, and a key pillar of the entrepreneurship ecosystem as a member of the private sector and advisor to various royal economic councils.
