Akin Salami is a man on a mission and he is also what you would call a serial entrepreneur. He has successfully launched several businesses across a number of sectors including banking, technology, aviation and broadcast media.
His modus operandi is to positively challenge the status quo within the sector, by successfully applying a different way of thinking. This is most evident in the way that he has sought to revolutionize the face of Black Media through the creation of the UN1TY/OH Networks brand. Along the way Akin has collected numerous awards including three Channel of the Year Awards for OH TV and another 20 global awards for OH Films' maiden feature movie, The Mirror Boy. Akin, a proud African, attended Government College, Ibadan, Nigeria and is also a University of Ife, engineering graduate. He relocated to the UK in 1994, spent five and a half years leading a technology team at Barclays Capital and it was here that he developed a personal principle of delivering the excellence which is evident in the culture of all his business concerns. At 52, Akin is now focused on building capacity across different industry sectors in Africa.
