S.Mobile Netzone Ltd is fusing technology, energy, and housing solutions to empower young Nigerians and reshape communities. Kingsley Ifeanyi Adonu, it’s Chief Executive Officer, is seeking to bridge the gap between innovation and service, particularly for vulnerable young Nigerians. Through these ventures, Adonu stated that Netzone is building a self-sustaining ecosystem that fuels job creation, strengthens local supply chains, and promotes regional partnerships. “Every business we start must solve a real problem. If it doesn’t add value to people’s lives, it has no purpose”, Adonu said. The company has rolled out several initiatives designed to equip young Nigerians with digital and entrepreneurial skills needed to thrive in today’s economy. Among them is a technology and innovation institute that partners with government agencies and corporate organisations to advance cybersecurity and digital innovation across Africa. “Our young people have the creativity, intelligence and drive. What they need is access, mentorship, and the right learning environment. That’s what we’re building”, Adonu said. For Adonu, leadership is not about titles but about the number of lives positively impacted.
