Over the week, some of our staffs were mentioned in the 2021 Founder Institute, Lagos Startup Resource List. Maya Horgan-Famodu, Blessing Abeng and Uwem Uwemakpan, members of the Ingressive family were mentioned as Evangelists on the list and we couldn’t be more proud of them.
We also got mentioned on the list, Ingressive Capital was listed under the Venture Capital List and that was definitely a beautiful way to start the New Year, however, we would like to place our focus on our talents who made the list too.
Without the right talents in an organization, it is hard to get work done and achieve anything. Some of our milestones in 2020 can be attributed to the hard work of members of staffs who keep the vision and goal working.
They are the major reason why we have achieved so much and is only right we recognize their roles;
