As we celebrate the New Year and new decade, we are also looking back on 2019 with gratitude for the victories we had, lessons that stretched us and made us grow and relationships we built that made the year truly special.

Yes, you guessed it! 2019 was AMAZING!! Here are some highlights…

We trained 1000+ CEOs and business owners in the past 18 months

We had an eventful year as a team and through our partnerships, we helped African businesses and young leaders in different capacities learn about Digital Marketing and Digital Transformation. These essential Digital Skills will allow them to leverage Digital to grow their businesses and make an impact in their communities. Here are some highlights…

Wimbiz Capital Training Session on Digital Transformation

Butterfly Brunch Digital Skills Masterclass

Redrick Accelerate Workshops — Leadership Masterclass

Techwomen Lagos Mentoring Session

Events & Industry Conversations

In a bid to contribute to the growth of the African tech ecosystem, we’ve been actively involved in events and conversations with industry experts and stakeholders in Nigeria and globally, here are some of the highlights from our year.

Social Media Week 2019 — EDTech Panel

Omojuwa’s Digital Wealth Book Launch

Entrepreneurship and New Business Models for Africa — Vienna School of Economics, Austria

We also had some major wins!!

ICYMI (In Case You Missed It): Our CEO was also selected as one of the 200 Obama African Leaders.

Our CEO was selected as one of the Obama Africa Leaders — a network of innovative and ethical change-makers who will drive positive change in their communities, the continent, and the world. We consider this yet another opportunity to do more in empowering Africans and African businesses with relevant digital skills to ensure Africa’s participation in the 4th Industrial Revolution and the Future of Work.
