Can I tell you about my new project?
I have just set up a new consulting firm called Barnaby and Edgar leveraging on my over 30 years of experience in business development within the investment banking space
What B&E would be doing is to consult within the space by providing guidance to clients as they seek to achieve their corporate goals.
B&E is more like a research and strategy firm, unlike my previous Hamilton and George, which I co-founded with my brother, Lami.
The vision of B&E is to provide an intellectual framework for businesses.
In this regard, we have attracted some of the best young minds in the market.
We have with us one of the most brilliant Investment bankers who, at his young age, has traversed some of the most enduring investment banking franchises in the country, consummating complex transactions.
We also have a young brain, who, although recently graduated, has worked with global giants – Mckinsey.
His contributions remain unassailable.
Ishmael Ebodaghe, who is arguably one of the most cerebral capital market lawyers, having worked at Templar’s and BGL and now is on the Board of NASD, is our Legal and Strategic Adviser.
The alvinreport. Com, my online platform that publishes well-researched essays on the economy and business, is now a fully incorporated outlet for B&E.
It would continue to take brilliant essays from such bright minds like Magnus Onyibe, Tope Fasua the Economic Adviser to the President, Dr Tope Fasoranti fmr ED, Zenith Bank amongst others
In particular, we have built a think tank of sector specialists who will meet quarterly to discuss the economy and business and then have its report published on the alvinreport as our own contribution to national development.
The think tank is chaired by Chike Iroegbunam, one of the most sought-after Architects and design consultants around.
He is the real estate sector expert on the think tank
Other such cerebral champions include Bolaji Adewumi, MD Abbey Mortgage; Nonny Ugboma, PhD; Olumide Aju SAN; Wale Adedeji, the Internationally regarded AI expert; Dr Nwabuoku, Harvard-trained Medical practitioner and Dr Austin Ebose, who is the MD of Anchor Insurance.
Furthermore, we have opened talks with Hakeem Condoti the franchise owner of the popular Who Wants to be a Millionaire series and he will be representing the Media and Entertainment sector on the think tank
Let me seize this opportunity to introduce Abdul Mohammed as the new Editor of the Alvin report.
Abdul is versatile and deep. A more introspective intellectual, I’m yet to see. His mandate is clear – to deliver alvinreport.com as a major repository of well-researched essays on business, economy and leadership.
Barnaby and Edgar, in its infancy, is already advising the biggest staff cooperative in Nigeria and is also working with a major design firm on a turn-of-the-century project that would redefine the space.
Reach me urgently should you require more information about Barnaby and Edgar.
Thanks
