by Mehmet Gonullu (Author)
An Amazon Bestseller. Built from 500+ conversations with the world's most compelling founders, builders, and investors.
Most startup books tell you what to do. This one shows you what actually happens. From Nowhere to Next is the product of over 500 in-depth conversations recorded on The CTO Show with Mehmet, one of the top technology podcasts in the MENA region. For years, Mehmet Gonullu sat across from founders who built companies from nothing, investors who bet on them, and operators who scaled them across borders. This book captures the patterns, the turning points, and the hard truths that emerged from those conversations. This is not theory. It is lived experience, distilled. What you will learn:- Why most founder playbooks fail and what actually drives early-stage momentum
- The patterns behind founders who rebuild after failure and come back stronger
- How global builders think about resilience, clarity, and cross-border innovation
- What separates founders who survive from those who scale
- The insider-outsider advantage and why your unconventional path is your edge
