The inception of Nixacom is credited to three visionary founders: Cheikh Gueye, Elhadji Fall, and Wangel Yohannes, each bringing their unique expertise to the table. Gueye, founder of VoitGo and a pioneer in simplifying consumerism in Senegal, has played a pivotal role in making previously inaccessible items like cars and smartphones available to a wider population. His innovative approach has been instrumental in democratizing technology in West Africa.
Elhadji Fall, with his extensive experience in the North American financial and risk management sectors, including his tenure at Wells Fargo, brings invaluable insight into sustainable business growth. His expertise is crucial in developing robust financial models, making our technology accessible to those who need it most. Wangel Yohannes, a seasoned tech developer with significant experience at Bank of America, ensures that the technology we offer is not only accessible but also cutting-edge and reliable.
Together, these founders embody the spirit of Nixacom. Their diverse backgrounds and shared commitment to accessibility, sustainability, and innovation shape our company’s ethos and propel our mission to empower communities in West Africa through technology. At Nixacom, we are dedicated to building a future where access to sustainable and quality technology is a cornerstone for education, economic prosperity, and improved healthcare, driving holistic and enduring positive change in developing countries.
