Welcome Introduction

My Story

Vision & Innovation

At BubeTech, we are developing AI-powered mobile platforms that aim to foster collaborative agricultural innovation across Africa. Our approach focuses on creating digital networks connecting smallholder farmers, enabling them to share knowledge, resources, and opportunities. Through strategic partnerships and community-centric programs, we're building comprehensive collaborative ecosystems that address key challenges like limited market access, inadequate resources, and climate variability.
 

Current Endeavors

I currently serve as a Research Communication Scholar at the Leaders of Africa Institute (with an Impact Scholarship of $2,780), where I'm developing policy frameworks for implementing Collaborative Innovation Networks (CINs) in West African agriculture. My research focuses on empowering smallholder farmers by transforming isolated challenges into collective opportunities through digital-age collaborative networks. This work includes advocating for policy measures that support network formation and demonstrating how well-structured CINs can help farmers combine traditional wisdom with modern tools for collective success.

Simultaneously, I'm pursuing multiple advanced degrees to deepen my expertise: an MSc in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Leeds specializing in agricultural AI applications; a Master's in Sustainable Agrifood System Management at the European Institute of Innovation for Sustainability (EIIS) in Rome, where I've been awarded a merit scholarship; and a Doctor of Business Administration at the Swiss School of Business and Management in Geneva, researching Collaborative Innovation Networks in Agricultural Transformation.
 

Professional Journey

My path in innovation began at the National Renewable Energy Research Centre at Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Nigeria, where I established a comprehensive meteorological database and developed predictive models for solar radiation forecasting. This early work ignited my passion for using data and technology to solve complex challenges.

A graduate of London Business School's prestigious Entrepreneurial Edge Program, where I was a finalist in the program's pitching competition, I've consistently demonstrated the ability to transform innovative ideas into impactful solutions. As founder of Shanghai AgroTechnologies, I pioneered an innovative circular economy model that successfully reduced feed costs by 70% in livestock agriculture operations. Earlier ventures include Multi-Capital Computers Ltd, where I led public sector digital transformation initiatives that enhanced operational efficiency by 100%.
