My name is Fehintola Bolagbade, the founder of Goriite Digital Agency, a creative think tank in the design and marketing industry. I’m passionate about helping entrepreneurs maximize the potentials of their businesses and building a corporate image for their brands while at it. I studied industrial mathematics, hence my love for computers.
My journey into entrepreneurship started in the year 2017 when I attended a training put together by the United State Consulate in Lagos Nigeria. The highly coveted event was tagged “Conference for Emerging Entrepreneurs (CEE)” which has now played out to be the genesis of my journey in the business world. After a thorough screening exercise, you had to be invited before you can attend the event.
5 years later and i still have my notepad from the conference.
Since then, I have put my hands on many kinds of businesses like many of us too. At one point, I did Multi-Level Marketing, MLM (Network marketing), did life coaching for a while and I have authored many books, “The Art of Soul Digging” being my first. I also did amazon Kindle publishing for a little while before I switched career fully into Technology. In 7 years, I’ve had some high points and some lows but above all the journey has been worth the while and rewarding.
My core value is driven by people oriented goals and results, my biggest motivation lie in my ability to grind out the desired digital results of my clients for their businesses.
I and my team members at Goriite Digitals have been bridging digital gaps existing between businesses and their target markets. We've built tens of web applications and mobile applications, you can find some of my works in my personal brand website. Link below

We make boast of an innovative team that has been proffering and offering technological advancements to government institutions that are looking forward to expanding their reach and people engagements, hospitals/medical practitioners that are committed to delivering timely health services to their patients, school administrators that are intentional about improving the academic and social welfare of their students, business owners that are passionate about the need to scale and promote their brands both internationally and locally.
I position brands for global impact through the power of innovation & digitization, while on a mission to awaken people’s consciousness to the endless possibilities in technology and how its power cuts across different walks of life, transcending beyond the conventional use of computers. My business operates under three arms namely digital branding, digital education and digital marketing.
My driving force is my vision of stimulating a better world by influencing growth, value and self-leadership in every business clime and human endeavor, through skillful and creative thinking powered by technology. I demonstrated this passion before and during the covid-19 pandemic lock-down by floating a social economic and entrepreneurial programme called SEEP.
This initiative kicked off as a physical event dedicated to skill acquisition and economic empowerment. The first edition was done on the 18th of January, 2020 and young people from different backgrounds were trained at no COST on skills like photography, suit accessories, coconut oil, graphic design and so on.
The pandemic hit just as we were preparing for the second edition which was supposed to be held in the second quarter of the year 2020. This desire of building capacity in others made us switch to virtual classes and this strategy proved to even be a lot more effective than physical training. Not only did we grow in impact, the number of trainees increased and it gave room for a wider participation because youths from other locations now had the luxury of joining since we switched to virtual. This gave me a great sense of value addition and a deep feeling of fulfillment.
Right now we are doing more in the digital agency by taking in interns and people who fancy themselves tech enthusiasts. Our vision at the digital place is to become Africa’s reference point for Tech innovation. Let me pause here for now. Look forward to making new acquaintances on such an indelible platform as this. Stay safe and keep winning.
It's not yet a wrap unless i mention @pappyelblanco for bringing the Hive community to my knowledge. Many thanks to you and to everyone reading. Cheers to our collective successes
