My guest today is Ashif Mawji who is making his second appearance on the podcast. Ashif is a tech entrepreneur and investor. Last time we talked about his incredible life story growing up in Kenya, moving to Canada, and starting his first business ventures. This time around we are focusing on his role as Chair of the Edmonton Police Foundation, how the foundation began, and their current projects aimed at making Edmonton a safer and more prosperous community. Through their Community Solutions Accelerator, and the analysis of datasets, EPF is tackling issues of liquor store theft, first responder mental health & wellness, and homelessness.
