Yanmo Omorogbe

"Yanmo Omorogbe(born November 2,1994) is a Nigerian entrepreneur and finance professional."

"" It's always shocking to me just how few female founders there are across the board. If you check the Africa stats, there's less, there's maybe five, at least in Nigeria, female founders who've raised a Series A. And we're not even talking about sole female founders, just literally companies with a female co-founder." Yanmo speaking on gender inequality in the African TECH space"

"I wouldn't advise anyone to start a tech company unless it was your dream."

"What I do tell women in general is that whatever dream you have, whatever goal you have there is room to scale it."

"" We need more women across, not necessarily being founders, being product managers and being customer experience. We need just more women across the entire value chain so that there's no more news that like you're a woman founder. There's no term like male founder. "Yanmo on the need for more involvement from women in the African TECH industry"

"My general philosophy about life is: what’s the worst that could happen? If I reflect on this, and I am okay with the worst‑case scenario, then why not?"

"“As a society, we need to make it easier for women to become founders, to enter tech, to start learning to code, or know what other opportunities are available. Spaces need to be safer for women — women are over mentored and underfunded. They don’t need another seminar; give them a check."
