Current Status
Azeelo Digital is a week away from official launch (azeelodigital.com). Scheduled launch is 11 May.
We have used our own resources to build this business remotely and during COVID-19 lockdown, and despite these challenges, we have built a business that is ready to enter the market.
Market
Businesses in industries 15 years or older.
Problem or Opportunity
The business leaders of today are challenged with remaining relevant and realigning business goals in line with the forced requirements of the great lockdown to be digital-ready. With combined commercial experience of over 50 years, Azeelo Digital can help fill the gap of technical knowledge and experience in successfully transforming businesses digitally. We bring with our experience, a fresh and objective view to the business and our goals are to help tackle digital transformation so that organisations can get on with their day-to-day business.

Competitors
The major competition here, are the big consulting firms like PWC, Accenture, Deloitte etc. Even globally, while the McKinseys of the world enjoy market share, we believe there is a niche market made up of (some big, )medium & micro-enterprises who could use the combined industry expertise Azeelo has, to make more informed business decisions that lead to the growth they really want.
Advantages or differentiators
As a team of techies who have run businesses and consulting businesses ourselves, we are uniquely positioned to drive the development of a platform that will enhance and revolutionise this entire industry.
Ehimen and Josephine have experience at very senior positions in one of the most sophisticated economies in the world.
