Scale Tales

Never in his wildest dreams did Osita Ifezue think he would one day be known as a serial entrepreneur. But that's exactly what happened. The seeds of his entrepreneurial journey sprouted in Lagos, Nigeria in 1999. 25 years later, he founded several businesses, some of which that took root and thrived and others that failed.

A common thread Osita noticed in his failed ventures was a profit-first mentality. When he shifted the focus to impact-first, everything changed! Now, as a distinguished storytelling strategist with over two decades of experience, he's gained insights into scaling businesses in multicultural settings while navigating the complexities of the entrepreneurial landscape as an immigrant.

In this scale tale, Osita shares how his commitment to social equity via immigrant integration in Finland led to the establishment of Entergrate, a non-profit organization that has been pivotal in empowering immigrant communities for over six years. Specifically, Entergrate connects their immigrant community to career-advancing opportunities through their special events hosted onsite at their client's location. In two examples, he describes win-win situations whereby both clients' increased their reach on LinkedIn by 300% because of Entergrate's digital marketing strategies and strong community.

Discover how Osita turned previous business failures to connect African and Nordic markets into impactful successes that help immigrants and organizations alike thrive in Finland. His unexpected journey will inspire you to rethink entrepreneurial resilience and immigrant integration in a whole new light.
