From Scents to Dollars - Forced Migration to Nomadism

Muhammad Elkateb is a serial entrepreneur born and raised in the United Kingdom to Egyptian parents forced to leave a life of wealth and abundance in Egypt in the wake of the political upheavals of Gamal Abdel Nasser.  After finishing university, disillusioned by a system that didn't seem to make sense to him, Muhammad began a career in sales by flogging perfumes door to door. He eventually transitioned into the world of telecommunications holding a number of high level sales rolls. Muhammad then made the switch to entrepreneurship and, keen to get out of the UK, began the life of a digital nomad chasing the sun. Among his portfolio of businesses, he is one of the founders of The Single Origin Food Co, a company that supports small farmers across the world by delivering their products to the consumer directly from source.  This episode flows in many directions and touches on a vast number of topics and themes that all culminate in looking towards a better future.    Music by Ian Cattanch
