STARTUP RISING The Entrepreneurial Revolution Remaking the Middle East

The writer tells this story of entrepreneurs in the Middle East with the passion of someone who has lived these experiences. Christopher M. Schroeder is not a professional narrator, but his firsthand knowledge of business development in the Arab world and his belief that this the next global trend make him persuasive. The overall effect is that of an evening newscast, told without many flourishes. His consistency in tone, pitch, and speed helps the listener process the intricate details he recounts about one start-up after another. Schroeder enunciates well and is fluid with the names of many Arab companies that may be unfamiliar to the listener. M.R. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2014]
