The man behind Ethiopia's Zayride taxi app

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Tadesse Hamtabu is the founder of Zayride, an app that - for a fee - allows Ethiopians to hail taxis, set up deliveries and even quickly organise an ambulance. At the AfroBytes tech conference in Paris, France, he told Âé¶¹Éç Africa’s Business Editor, Larry Madowo, what inspired him to leave the US and move back to Ethiopia to make a difference.
