I Have Been Named One Of The Top Nigerian Executives In Software And Given An Excellence Award

, , 10 comments
Yesterday was a very good day for me. I finally got around finishing a client's software that has been getting me daily calls and mails. The generator was very cooperative, no unpleasant surprise when I needed it most. And I got an award mail. I have been screened and picked as one of the top 2 percent Nigerian Executives in IT and Software. 

It was by a business research and publication company run, surprisingly, by an American who is also an Harvard MBA graduate. He had been involved in starting a few foreign investor backed businesses in Nigeria and noticed the dearth of dependable market research data in Nigeria. So he started The Top Executives business publication that researches and lists the top Nigerian Executives and Companies in over 24 industries. And publishes a yearly book that is like the Who's Who in the business world in Nigeria by industry.

And luckily for me, I am in this year's publication. So when foreign companies are reading through them to look for business partners or IT vendors in Nigeria, my chances of being discovered are now higher.


My listing is in the K - Z book. You can get it on Amazon via: http://www.amazon.com/Nigerian-Top-Executives-Software-Industry/dp/1507533454 

Below is the congratulatory mail I got:

    1. Hi Buki,

      I also noticed quite a lot of people got the award. Been seeing people put it up on their LinkedIn profile.

      I didn't buy the book.


      Cheers,
      Michael
