Synopsis
Have you ever wanted tackle a problem you know could make a difference in people’s lives? I sat down with Keith Mantel of Itabo, a Miami tech startup founder and former US Army officer who saw in Afghanistan how lack of land rights directly contributed to poverty. He has big plans to make a difference in other poor countries, starting with Jamaica, where he is bringing his Zillow-like offering to the marketplace. We talked about why he decided to take this unconventional startup path despite having other opportunities and the biggest challenges he’s facing, most especially governments. Keith also talked about what he admires in Elon Musk, why he chose Miami for his startup, and what we can all do to help put Miami on the tech & entrepreneurship map. He’s an inspiring guy and we can all learn a lot from his worth ethic and drive.
