In this episode, we have another South African founder who has gone to the US to take their startup onto the global stage. Louis is passionate about learning and is creating a startup to motivate and reward people for reading non-fiction books.

His startup, Bookt, has created an interactive way for people to read the best non-fiction books while connecting them to a community of readers allowing for sharing insights into a practical experience of the insights provided by the book.

It's a great concept and Louis shared some absolute gold in his thinking and approach to building his startup. It's on for the books.
