Your Naivety Is Your Superpower | Timothy Armoo | TEDxMakerere University Business School

What if the very thing you think disqualifies you is the reason you’ll win?

At 17, Timothy Armoo had no network, no capital, and no credentials; only a phone, a brain, and the audacity to ask differently. Years later, that same mindset would help him scale a company to 80 employees, work with global brands, and secure multi eight-figure exits.

In this candid talk, Timothy pulls back the curtain on the internal psychology of high growth. Through personal journal entries never meant for public eyes, he reveals how embracing ignorance, inventing an alter ego, and reframing setbacks allowed him to move through fear, and outwork self-doubt, instead of waiting for it to disappear.

This talk challenges the mythology of overnight success and replaces it with something far more practical: structured self-belief built through action.

Timothy Armoo is a British-Ghanaian entrepreneur, investor, and global speaker. After co-founding and exiting Fanbytes, he has advised brands including Goldman Sachs, Adobe, and Dell, and continues to champion a new generation of digital-native founders. Timothy Armoo is a new-generation entrepreneur redefining how wealth and influence are built in the digital era. As co-founder of Fanbytes, he pioneered Gen Z marketing at scale — leading to an eight-figure exit to Brainlabs before the age of 30.

Recognized by Forbes 30 Under 30, Armoo has become a global voice on entrepreneurship, digital attention, and the creator economy — advising and speaking for brands like Goldman Sachs, Adobe, and Dell. Today, he invests in early-stage ventures while championing financial literacy and modern wealth creation.

He represents the blueprint for building fast, thinking globally, and exiting strategically in the attention economy. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Receive SMS online on sms24.me
