SpeakerDebo Omole
Speaker's BiographyDebo is a multifaceted entrepreneur and business analyst whose career reflects his diverse interests and commitment to community service. His professional and leadership journey includes serving as a former member of the Swansea YMCA Board of trustees, running a successful African catering business (Twale Cuisine) and providing business analysis as well as facilities support services through Hallmenauel ltd.
His entrepreneurial journey has enabled him to create opportunities for other ethnic minority individuals and businesses in Swansea. He’s also had the opportunity of deepening partnerships with grassroots communities, as he navigated the challenges and joys of entrepreneurship.
Debo is also a published author. His contribution to the book ‘Cymru and I’ reflects on the mental scars ethnic minorities carry when exploring the duality of their ethnicity and Welsh heritage through the lens of a migrant.
Currently, Debo works as a Digital Business Analyst at Swansea University, where he secured his MBA in 2015. His return has allowed him to give back to the community that shaped his career, mentoring young professionals and contributing to strategic projects.
Debo is a practicing Christian and active in his local Church. He is married and blessed with 3 children.
