What does it take to be a 26 year old running one of Africa’s most innovative startups disrupting how small holder farmers can build up data for acessing loans .

I talk to Peris Bosire at Viva Tech in Paris , trying learn as much from her journey for my readers and listeners .

Peris Bosire is co-founder of Kenya-based start-up FarmDrive, which has developed an innovative credit-scoring model that can be used by financial services providers to assess the creditworthiness of small-scale farmers, and ultimately give more of them access to financing to increase their yields and production.
