Maxwell-Akinyemi’s strategic vision forged impactful partnerships with industry giants like Microsoft Nigeria social capitals, Bank of Industry, and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), expanding Vatebra’s market reach to over 200,000 leads. His pioneering efforts also included the Vatebra Women-In-Tech Training project, which empowered women across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones, and the Vatebra HR Business Summit, a flagship event with a platform for tech talent acquisition and development with industry stakeholders.
A champion of collaboration, Maxwell-Akinyemi represented Vatebra Limited at the Nigeria Technology Awards, where he celebrated the company clinching the coveted “Tech Company of the Year” title for the eighth time, alongside the “e-Government Consulting Company of the Year” award.
