A mere handshake says a lot about Tony Elumelu.
His gritty grip underlines his charming, tenacious personality: a man who hardly backs down from any challenge.
The same engaging qualities have propelled him from a modest beginning in Nigeria to becoming chair of the United Bank of Africa, and one of the most innovative and ambitious business leaders of his generation.
He is a leading proponent of “Africapitalism,” a belief that Africa’s private sector can and must play a leading role in the continent’s development through long-term investments, as well as entrepreneurship and regional connectivity.
After deepening the financial market in Africa, he has found an equally important niche: giving a voice of hope to millions of youths across Africa.
Tony has harnessed Africa’s youth bulge to catalyze development and protect the future, committing to investing $5,000 each in 1,000 young entrepreneurs per year across 54 countries in Africa.
Having come so far, Tony still forges on, striking a fine balance between personal satisfaction and societal impact.
