Build From Nothing is a practical book for professionals and founders who feel capable of more than their current role, title or client list reflects.
Through the lived experience of architect and tech founder David Adjei, it shows how he grew an architecture practice, then built a construction focused tech company now valued in the seven figures after a pre seed investment round raised in 29 days.
More importantly, it shows you how to redesign your own career and positioning from wherever you are starting.
