01About Benjamin
A work in progress, like everything worth building.
A founder with a designer’s eye
Hi, I am Benjamin. I’m interested in what happens when a good idea is given the clarity to travel.
I work at the intersection of branding, design and business. Through Design Ready Africa, I help African startups turn early ideas into brands people can understand, trust and remember.
But Design Ready Africa is only one part of the picture. I’m also building other ventures, exploring new opportunities and making space for the ideas that have not found their name yet.
