Making It Big

FEMI OTEDOLA is one of Africa’s greatest philanthropists. The self-made entrepreneur and Forbes-rated billionaire dreamt of his first business before he was ten years old and made his first billion by the age of 41. Part business book, part memoir, this book charts Otedola’s ambition, hard work, successes, challenges and setbacks — from making a billion, to losing a billion to making it back again and, as one of Africa’s richest men, settling into a philanthropic role to give back to the continent. Making It Big is a masterclass in attaining and maintaining a positive mindset and a reminder that it is possible to defy the odds, no matter how stacked they are against you. Packed with personal philosophies and business
lessons, this is a book of hope, backed up by solutions, written to inspire entrepreneurs in Africa and from everywhere.
