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. I hope this mysterious description picked your interest because even though it's a long episode, is definitely worth to listen.
