This week in The CTO Show With Mehmet Gonullu's MEA Tech & Startup Digest:
📊 Saudi leads MENA: $750M in VC
🌟 Two $30M Series A rounds
💰 Multiple seed deals
But let me tell you, it’s not about the accolades.
It’s about knowing that with determination, passion, the right mindset, and support from family and colleagues, you can achieve anything. 💪
✨ Go build today—don’t wait! Because it’s never too late to start.
💌 Yesterday, I was privileged to receive an email from Anuj Agarwal, founder of FeedSpot, saying that The CTO Show with Mehmet has been selected as one of the Top 45 Dubai Business Podcasts on the Web. 🌟
• A strong dedication to delivering insights about the tech and startup world in an easy-to-digest format—to spark ideas and inspire fellow entrepreneurs
Was I tempted to stop after starting? Heck, yes! But the fire inside kept me going. 🔥 I relied on:
• Self-belief
• Incredible guests who brought tons of experience
“What’s the worst that can happen?”
And that’s how the story of The CTO Show with Mehmet podcast began. 🚀
I never set out to do anything other than fulfill a passion—to leave an impact and inspire anyone, anywhere in the world, to start chasing their dreams, regardless of age.
🎙️ If you have a dream and passion, just start…
I started recording myself talking about tech on cassette tapes at the age of 7. 🎧 This passion stayed hidden inside me, occasionally surfacing throughout the years. Then, exactly two years ago, I finally mustered the courage to ask myself:
This vision of customized education is groundbreaking:
✅ Kids learning physics through basketball or Pokémon.
✅ Tailored learning experiences based on individual interests.
✅ A renaissance in education powered by AI and tools like Notebook LM.
