Founder, Subifi

Signed up for:
  • Tech vision & roadmap

SHOPS Plus Project

Emily
Senior Digital Healthcare Advisor, ShopsPlus Project

Signed up for:
  • Tech vision & roadmap
  • Product development leadership
  • High-performance team

Emily and her team needed to transfer the development of a nation-wide healthcare platform to a team that would deliver their vision. They had already spent a year in development and couldn't afford to lose all that progress. I led my team and we took over the development of the platform and delivered a nation-wide healthcare platform that impacted over a million people through improved testing and diagnosis. There were over 4,000 healthcare facilities utilising the platform.

The Carbon Almanac

Seth Godin
Founder, The Carbon Almanac.

Services offered:
  • Product development leadership

Bulama was an essential volunteer in our work creating the Carbon Almanac. He helped lead a team of hundreds of people, creating a bestselling book and website about our future on this planet. His technical skills and passion were an essential building block in our success."

Founder, Petmi Community

Signed up for:
  • Tech vision & roadmap
  • Product development leadership
  • High-performance team

Bolanle already had an app built and serving over 7,000 users on the Petmi platform. The only problem was that she was losing users due to poor user experience. The app was slow and clunky. I came in and helped her, together with my team of skilled developers, to rebuild the app from the inside out. In the end the app was delivering a superior user experience and Bolanle is very proud of what I've done for her.
