“So I sad: this is not your design, this can’t be right. And the guy said: what are you going to do about it?”
I am Isaac, an entrepreneur who just moved to Dubai. In this episode, I interview Omar and Dina, the owners of the brand Tica’s . They will tell you what happened when they found their products being copied and the innovative business idea that emerged after they had to shut their shop for three weeks.
Our conversation in Dubai’s Art District was the only good thing that happened to me this week — and changed my approach to challenges completely!
Don’t miss this inspiring story of resilience and creativity.
