#55 - Interviewing Iris Who Raised 1M For Her Sustainable Fashion App
Today I have a chat with Iris Skrami, the co-founder of Renoon, an up-an-coming sustainable fashion app that got the attention of multiple investors, having raised 1M euros in the seed round. We spoke about how being an entrepreneur was initially not part of her life plan but end up being unavoidable because of a black dress.
