Fixing A Broken Gig Economy

from The Playbook · host David Meltzer, Entrepreneur.com

In today’s episode, I sit down with Moe Jumaa, CEO of Waxii, to talk about building a business by questioning broken systems. At 24, Moe shares how a simple rideshare experience exposed a major gap in the market and led to a platform focused on giving drivers more of what they earn. We discuss his early start in crypto, learning through mentorship instead of traditional education, and why underserved global markets present massive opportunity. Moe also explains why he chose crowdfunding over venture capital and how aligning with community needs creates traction where big companies fall short.
