Gianmarco is a Social Entrepreneur, an Innovator and the Founder of the social start-up Nai Nami. Nai Nami is based in Nairobi, Kenya and gives disadvantaged youths of the Mathare Slum an opportunity to use their street skills and life stories to become Storyteller Guides who give tourists an opportunity to experience Nairobi through the eyes of a street child on an intimate walking tour through the city center. All of the youth involved with Nai Nami now have a job, earn a regular income and live a life free of crime. Nai Nami won the Traveller’s Choice Award 2020 by Viator and is rated as the #1 Tour in Nairobi on TripAdvisor. In March 2019, Nai Nami was handed over to the youths who now own and successfully run this profitable business themselves.
Over all, this is an amazing conversation for anyone who feels like they’re struggling to find their place in the world, regardless of whether you’re interested in becoming a social entrepreneur or something else. Some of the things we’ll be talking about are: transforming weaknesses into strengths, how you can make a positive difference in the world and the difference between purpose and passion. Gianmarco is an inspiring and generous individual who is all about empowering others and I so look forward to sharing his insights with you.
