Wesley’s key strengths are focused in the areas of Business and Technology Strategy. With a bachelor’s in engineering and computer science, Wesley deeply understands the foundations of technology. As a career business developer with sales and marketing experience, he scripts models that overcome the challenges of consumers adopting a new technological product. Wesley’s strategy in building and scaling a competitive company begins with defining a company’s core, value, purpose, and solutions. He believes that “Technology has a purpose in the community, but our companies must intimately bond to the communities they plan on serving before successful growth will occur”.Wesley grew up in West Africa and later graduated in Boston MA. with a BSEE. His mission has been to ensure that every CEO, founder, or entrepreneur's journey is never lonely. He started Fruition Tech Labs after a 20+ year career in Business Development, Marketing, and Sales within technology companies based in Boston and Silicon Valley. My career took me to Asia, Europe, Canada, South America, and throughout the USA, as Wesley’s key roles were to develop new markets for newly developed tech-based products, covering over 10 industry segments. Internally I supported 3 global divisions in marketing and product development, Asia, Europe, and The Americas. From his years of experience in “Corporate”, Wesley learned the vital importance of having a simple and clear process to successfully take an idea from concept to launch while keeping the focus on the people hence the idea has a purpose. Wesley has discovered through numerous research and experience that the core strength of a sustainable tech product lies in the values, mission, and vision of the company which stems from its founders. Purpose-driven businesses are known to be highly competitive, and very profitable, and boast of engaging loyalty and commitment from employees and customers to ensure the success of Product Market Fit.Over the past 10 years with the support of over 100 advisors, investors, and marketing professionals, we have perfected the “5 Steps to Making Headway” process steps (the fingerprints to your perfect business model). Wesley's vision is to see all businesses develop their product or services by first defining their core purpose and position in their industry, and second building the RIGHT team, while keeping in mind to be economically sensitive to each startup’s financial journey.
