About me
Tech and business, in two languages
I'm Idris Yakubu — a business manager, tech entrepreneur, and software developer based in Ghana, working across West Africa. I build digital solutions and help businesses start, run, and scale.
Over the past seven years I've led teams, managed companies, and shipped software — from inventory and e-commerce systems to mobile apps and payment integrations. Being fluent in both English and French lets me work seamlessly across anglophone and francophone markets.
What I bring
- Bilingual & cross-cultural
- Entrepreneurial & results-driven
- Adaptable across business & tech
- Reliable, end-to-end problem solver
- Pan-African vision
- Clear communicator & patient teacher
