The Challenge

Aita, with her history of business success, embarked on a journey to build something grander than she had ever attempted. Faced with the dual challenge of nurturing a growing family and a newborn startup, she had her hands full:

  • Although a proven businesswoman, the scale of Nawali was new territory for Aita.
  • With the imminent arrival of a new family member and the demands of motherhood, she sought substantial external support.
  • The world of fundraising was foreign to her, yet she knew that a significant initial investment of at least $250K was crucial for Nawali's success.
