I help ambitious individuals to turn their business ideas into profitable business venture. These individuals are often migrants or disenfranchised youth ready to re-empower themselves and to grow and use their talents for the benefit of themselves and society.

To this end I have worked with dozens of migrant and youth organizations and networks. Together we’ve upgraded and leveraged their human capital, and we’ve developed commercially viable services and products, for instance www.thabisoculturalconnector.nl, www.iseoluwa.com,

In my projects, I strive to blend personal development, business support, social change and sustainability into innovative approaches that stick and work. I’m living my dream of being a social entrepreneur and supporting others to do the same. I’m also open to develop joint initiatives with like-minded partners.

“Over the years I’ve come to known Abubakarr as a visionary, knowledgeable, well-connected agent for social change. He combines integrity with creativity and a warm sense of humour. I myself have benefited a great deal from his advice and introductions on numerous occasions. For complex projects on the interface of new business and social change: Abubakarr is your man.”
