We are excited to announce the addition of Tokunboh Ishmael and Frank Atube to our Board of Directors. Their combined expertise in finance, strategy, and corporate governance will be instrumental in accelerating Seamfix’s growth and amplifying our impact on the global digital identity landscape.
“The addition of Tokunboh Ishmael and Frank Atube to our Board of Directors marks a significant moment for Seamfix,” said Chimezie Emewulu, Co-founder and CEO of Seamfix. “Their proven track records and strategic insights will be invaluable as we pursue our ambitious growth goals and expand globally, making identity a right for everyone and not a privilege for some. We look forward to their contributions and welcome them to the Seamfix board.”
Tokunboh Ishmael: A Global Voice for Transformational Impact
Tokunboh Ishmael is the Co-founder and Principal Partner of Alitheia Capital. She’s a visionary leader with a proven track record of driving positive social change through strategic investments, including our recently announced $4.5 million fund. Renowned for her contributions to sustainable finance, her passion for financial inclusion perfectly aligns with our vision to enable trust in the way we work, live and learn.
In her own words, Tokunboh highlights the critical role of digital identity in unlocking economic potential:
“In an increasingly digital-first world, digital IDs are key to accessing opportunities. According to a recent McKinsey report, such access can unlock up to 70% of an economy’s full economic potential and an additional 6% of GDP. This is particularly pertinent for low-income women in emerging economies who are disproportionately impacted by a lack of digital identity. I’m beyond excited to work with Seamfix to amplify its work in enabling millions of people to participate in the African economy and reach their full potential by providing crucial identification services and empowering businesses across the continent to scale.”
Frank Atube: A Decade of Seamfix Success and Strategic Leadership
Frank Atube has been a part of the Seamfix success story, having served in various leadership roles, including Head of Product Management, Head of Growth, and most recently, Chief Operating Officer. He has been critical to Seamfix’s revenue growth, profitability, and customer acquisition milestones. He has won multiple executive awards, and his extensive experience leading cross-functional teams will be invaluable as we navigate the next phase of our journey.
“I am incredibly honoured to join the Seamfix Board of Directors,” said Frank Atube. “Having been a part of Seamfix’s success story for the past decade, I am more passionate than ever about our mission and the positive impact we can create on a global scale. Together, we can empower millions of individuals and businesses to unlock new opportunities through secure and inclusive digital identities.”
A Powerful Synergy for the Future
We are confident that Tokunboh and Frank’s combined expertise will be a tremendous asset to Seamfix as we strive to expand our reach and impact, meeting the need for secure and inclusive digital identity solutions.
