Nacho Nwana, a recent MIT grad who double majored in Management and Political Science. As a Nigerian-American, he had looked to travel to Africa through MISTI, but with all trips halted for most of 2020, he couldn’t get there. As a way to get connected to the continent, he interned at a Senegal-based start-up called LOOKA, and launched his own podcast: “Africa Unveiled.”
Ari spoke with Nacho to discuss the work he’s been doing as an intern at LOOKA, what he’s learned about the digital landscape in countries like Nigeria, and even how bitcoin is used in Africa.
In a student-submitted piece, MIT-Brazil's managing director and faculty director have a conversation about the MISTI Brazil experience.
