Mina Elias, founder of Trivium Group, joins us this episode to discuss his journey with his previous projects, which eventually led him into making his own Amazon advertising agency.
Mina was born in Egypt and moved to Dubai at a young age. His parents sought better opportunities and a brighter future for their family, and Dubai seemed like the perfect place to find them. Growing up in Dubai, Mina developed a passion for supplements and fitness. He became an expert in the field, leveraging his engineering background to scale his own supplement brand.
As Amazon continues to dominate the e-commerce landscape, the demand for expert Amazon advertising agencies will only grow. Mina has proven to understand the game, and that makes him one of the best to be in the space.
