About Us
The Story Behind The Fish-For-Life Empowerment Project (A Message From Dr. Ope Banwo - The Founder)
Our journey began with a vision to combat youth unemployment in Nigeria, a challenge that touches the heart of our nation’s future. Inspired by the turning of my 60th year, ‘Fish-For-Life’ was born out of a deep desire to give back, to transform lives through the power of digital entrepreneurship. This initiative is not just a project; it’s a personal commitment to nurture the potential of our young minds and offer them a path to success and independence.
Meet The Founder
A Lifetime of Passion and Purpose
I’m Dr. Ope Banwo, the visionary behind Mobisoft360 Inc., and my journey weaves through the realms of law, technology, entrepreneurship, motivational speaking, and corporate consulting. My academic path in law has awarded me a Bachelor of Laws, Barrister-At-Law, Master of Laws, and an honorary Doctor of Laws (Ph.D.). I am privileged to be admitted to practice at the Nigerian Bar, the New York Bar, and the Federal District Court of Nebraska, USA.
My passion for technology and innovation has led me to become a prolific software publisher and founder, with creations like Bizmatic, CopyDaddy, Churchio, Business360 Suite, and 360Apps, among others, bearing my signature. My entrepreneurial spirit doesn’t stop there; I’ve also authored over 60 books spanning digital business, business management, and Christian lifestyle. My works, including titles like “ChatGPT Business Goldmines,” “Bookpreneur Manifesto,” “Encounters with ChatGPT,” “48 Laws of Power in the Marketplace,” and “12 Commandments Of Digital Marketing,” reflect my dedication to enlightening and inspiring others.
Beyond my professional endeavors, I’m deeply committed to philanthropy and public service. Initiatives like The Digital Works Africa and Naija Lives Matter showcase my commitment to empowering African youth with digital skills for self-employment and advocating for citizenship rights. Through companies like Banwo & Igbokwe Law Firm, Mobisoft360 Inc., Netpreneur360 Inc., and A-I Varsity, I strive to create platforms that foster growth, innovation, and empowerment.
Welcome to my world, where passion meets purpose, and every day is a step towards making a difference.
