Mimi Omokri is Head of Business & Corporate Development for Uber across Sub-Saharan Africa, one of the fast-growing regions for the company.
Prior to Uber, Mimi led commercial payments and built the Sub-Saharan Africa enterprise business at Mastercard from the ground-up at a time when startups were chipping away at incumbents and new technology was creating opportunities for all players. Name an innovation that’s changed commercial payments—mobile, e-commerce, AI, virtual—and Mimi has been there in the trenches.
All through, she has focused on building value through third party partnerships.
She’s had a fervent passion for entrepreneurship and disruptive technology. She completed a degree from the University of Sussex and later furthered at the Harvard Business school.
She’s one of the women slated to speak at this year’s edition of the “Women Tech Summit” at Cape Town, South Africa.
