Hopeful founders are building startups to solve serious problems, make life easy for the people and add economic value to the country. Today, with over 250,000 registered users and over 98,000 active users in Tripoli alone, Presto Eat is the biggest startup in the country. Presto Eat, on the other hand, was able to scale up because of its access to early funding, which is highly unlikely in Libya. But like Presto Eat, it also leveraged close friends to raise hush-hush investments. Despite the harsh political and economic climate, unfazed Libyan founders like Hamid and others remain eager to build a new Libya where tech thrives regardless of the instability.
