The Global UJ

Why limit ourselves as an entrepreneur to just our own backyards when the world has limitless opportunities to make an impact? From the hottest startups, government leaders mobilizing entrepreneurial change, to truly trying to understand the local markets, culture, and people. The Global UJ is a weekly podcast bringing you direct insight from the best entrepreneurs & leaders from around the world. Connecting us all from the developed to the developing nations, and everywhere in between, to look at opportunities on a global level. Things we take for granted may still be a concept elsewhere, resources we have as entrepreneurs vary wildly across regions, but we can make the world just a little bit smaller and see how we can help each other as entrepreneurs by learning about the nuances of commerce within each country.Hosted by Ujwal Velagapudi, a serial entrepreneur & investor bringing together his passion for business & curiosity to learn more about the world through the eyes of entrepreneurship.
