Today’s episode is told through the eyes of Nonso, a fictional aspiring tech founder in Lagos, Nigeria. Nonso comes across the Apple v Proview Technology case aka “the ipad case” in a Techcrunch article titled “Court Reportedly Rules Against Apple In China As The iPads Keep Rolling Out Of Foxconn.” and shares it with her co-founder Chiaka. They get help breaking down the case from Nonso’s shady elder sister Ada who’s in Law School.

Inspiration for this podcast was drawn from my favourite storytelling podcasts: Passing Through by NnekaJ, WBUR’s Modern Love and Radiotopia’s Ear Hustle.
