Femi Akinde of Slim Trader is a two time SOCAP alum, participating in the Mobile Fast Pitch at SOCAP10 which garnered him the ear of Invested Development who funded the organization a few months later and most recently speaking at SOCAP Europe. Turns out we aren’t the only ones who’ve noticed his work. Femi was just announced as one of the 2011 TED Fellows. A great honor going to a great organization.
