Abdullah Albiladi - AquaMinds

In this episode, you’ll hear from Abdullah Albiladi, Founder and CTO of AquaMinds, as he shares the unfiltered reality of building a company from the inside out. The decisions, doubts, sacrifices, and quiet moments of conviction that define real entrepreneurship.

Abdullah’s journey didn’t start with a business plan or a funding round. It started with lived frustration, deep technical insight, and the courage to begin before everything was ready. He speaks openly about learning by doing, the mental weight of ownership, and why knowing something is hard doesn’t stop you from choosing to do it anyway.

If you’ve ever felt the pull to build something meaningful, questioned whether you’re ready, or wondered what separates people who think about starting from those who actually start, this conversation is for you.

Dora Marčec - Gynomics

In this conversation, we meet Dora Marčec, Founder and CEO of Gynomics - a company using data and science to tackle one of the hardest problems in healthcare: predicting and preventing pre-term birth - in a field where women’s health has been under-researched, under-funded, and too often dismissed.

This isn’t a hype-driven startup story. It’s about turning personal frustration into scientific evidence, choosing the hardest possible problem, and building a company where impact matters more than speed. If you care about meaningful innovation, mission-led entrepreneurship, and solving problems that truly matter - this conversation is for you.

Matilde Lerias - Synkit

In this conversation, we meet Matilde Lerias, founder of Synkit, who is building at the intersection of science, lifestyle, and lived experience to challenge a reality where women’s health remains one of the most under-researched and under-designed areas in modern technology - despite affecting half the population, every single day.

Matilde didn’t start Synkit because it was trendy. She started because too much of women’s health data still ignores how women actually live - how they train, work, rest, stress, and move through the world. In this conversation, she shares what it’s really like to step into an under-researched space with more questions than answers, and the courage it takes to build anyway.

You’ll hear about uncertainty, hard choices, fundraising realities, and the quiet resolve required to work on problems the system hasn’t prioritised yet. This isn’t a story about certainty or scale. It’s a story about seeing what’s missing - and deciding to do something about it. If you’re someone who notices gaps others overlook, feels drawn to problems that matter, and is willing to build before the path is clear - this conversation is for you.
