I have worked at Facebook for 10 years developing partnership programs with Telco's and the Connectivity ecosystem in Emerging Markets to provide better and cheaper internet access. Currently as the Chief Growth Officer at Smile Identity, I focus on the African continent and help develop solutions that enable people to prove their Identity online and have access to a digital lifestyle online.
