About me

I'm Seyi, founder & MD @ CHL World. For the past 18 months, we've helped the biggest new-gen brands, startups & creators grow across the UK & Nigeria. Our clients range from large companies like Spotify, down to smaller, niche tech startups like Faaji App. I believe the upcoming generation have the power to change the world, and so pretty much everything I do is rooted in growing businesses & ideas that cater to this 'new-gen.' I'm lucky enough to have been recognised for my work, winning the prestigious OSCA Award in 2019 at the age of 22.

On a more personal note, I'm a 2x Cannes Lions Speaker, Winner of the 30 under 30 Campaign Magazine Award, I've run youth strategy workshops for the likes of Vodafone & Warwick Uni, and featured in publications like Native Magazine, TPX Impact and so on. I've also been lucky enough to work on strategy for brands like YouTube, Jameson, Universal Music, Lucozade and many many more. I've built creative & niche communities ranging from over 13 countries and counting.

I'm the founder of newly launched #Africannes, an Ascential backed initiative designed to bring more SubSaharan representation to the Palais, and hosted our launch panel at Inkwell Beach, June 2022.

I love to grow things, so please reach out if you are a:

- Brand looking to ethically tap into youth culture.

- Young Creative looking to scale your career through community & collaboration

- New-Gen African StartUp looking to scale & grow.
