“Discover the captivating journey of Olumide Soyombo in his memoir, ‘Vantage: My Life, Starting Out and Startups.’ This compelling narrative is divided into three distinct parts, each unveiling a different facet of his life. From humble beginnings to entrepreneurship and investing, and finally, the invaluable lessons from his veteran experience in Africa’s tech ecosystem, Soyombo’s story is a testament to resilience and innovation.

In ‘Vantage,’ Olumide Soyombo, one of Nigeria’s foremost investors and early supporters of groundbreaking startups like Paystack and PiggyVest, breaks the mold of Nigerian business leaders by sharing the untold stories of their industry. Herbert Wigwe, Group CEO of The Access Corporation, hails ‘Vantage’ as “the most significant book written on the burgeoning tech space in Nigeria.”

One of the book’s central themes is the profound impact of mentorship on business success. Soyombo recounts a pivotal moment in his journey when he received a scathing email from his father, his first investor, in February 2013, after he and his partner, Kazeem Tewogbade (Kaz), indulged in purchasing two Mercedes Benz E-Class cars. Two years later, Olumide found himself in a similar situation, sending a critical email to the co-founders of PushCV, the company that would later transform into PiggyVest, questioning their expenditure of the last $50k he had invested. ‘Vantage’ offers invaluable insights, emphasizing the importance of delayed gratification and long-term vision in the world of startups.

Experience the dynamic world of tech entrepreneurship through Olumide Soyombo’s eyes in ‘Vantage,’ a story that illuminates the path to success and the pivotal role of mentorship in achieving your entrepreneurial dreams.”
