About
Hello my name is Chinyere and I’ve been building a business development support company over the past 8 years although I have 20+ years industry experience. I’m interested in Africa and Latin America as I believe these are the most exciting startup spaces on the continent right now. I’m looking to support early stage startup founders and women owned/led businesses in their set-up phase as I believe mentors can add the most value then. My interests are edtech, retail, clean tech, social media platforms and anything related to Web3.

Mentorship motivation
- I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
- I want to make new connections for myself and/or the organization I represent
- I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat
I first ventured into business when my husband got a job 70,000km from home. This was so I could relocate with the children to join him, and to earn my own money. The entrepreneurial journey can be lonely for most entrepreneurs. They need guidance, support, and mentoring to increase their chances of success especially within the first five years of business. Having failed in business before, I understand the situation and challenges founders face, and want to contribute my support to their success.
