United States - ND

I am Benjamen Oladokun, an entrepreneur known for my trailblazing spirit and visionary approach. Throughout my journey, I have revolutionised multiple industries by identifying untapped potential and fearlessly diving into groundbreaking ventures.

My entrepreneurial journey began at a young age while studying at Obafemi Awolowo University. This period ignited my passion, leading me to explore opportunities in the gaming, hospitality, and mobility sectors. I successfully introduced innovative ventures such as CampusChow, KingzChow, and Snack it Distro, setting the stage for my remarkable career.

In pursuit of my ambitions, I joined Venture Garden Group (VGG), a dynamic holding company renowned for its cutting-edge technology firms. As part of this organisation, I led a team that pioneered innovative solutions across various sectors, including aviation, power, education, and finance, within Africa and emerging markets. One of my notable achievements was spearheading the automation of the MMIA Tollgates, establishing my position as a frontrunner in the mobility fintech space.

In 2015, I co-founded Eazypapers Technologies, Nigeria's premier digital vehicle documentation solution for large fleet owners, generating millions of dollars in annual recurring revenue. Providing me with profound insights into the intricate workings of the automotive value chain, setting the stage for my next game-changing endeavour.

Leveraging my decade-long experience, I embarked on my most ambitious mission yet by co-founding Shekel Mobility, a Y Combinator-backed mobility fintech startup. Our primary aim is to revolutionise the car dealership industry by empowering dealerships with simpler, smarter, and faster tools to fuel their growth. With an audacious vision of creating the largest auto dealership ecosystem, we are determined to power a staggering $10 billion by 2025.

Beyond my professional achievements, I am a loving husband and father to two wonderful children. Through my leadership at Shekel Mobility, I aspire to establish Africa's first mobility unicorn, propelling the continent into a new era of technological advancement and economic prosperity.
