I sat down with Ali Halabi, Founder - CEO of-Volt Lines, a Turkish based B2B mobility platform solving for the daily work commute in Istanbul, a city of 15million people that is notorious for its traffic woes. Ali has had a fascinating journey from Lebanon to Turkey and has rubbed shoulders with failure many times. In fact Volt Lines was the re-birth of a previous startup called Volt which he had to shut down. He saw himself celebrate Volt Line-s exit to Swvl, a $1.5B regional startup, only to get his company back 6 months later. Ali-s business ingenuity has been documented in a 3 part Harvard Business Review case study. This episode is raw, genuine and a masterclass in entrepreneurship.
