Long before technology became the language of modern life, Leo Stan Ekeh, founder and Chairman of Zinox Group, had envisioned its potential to transform Africa. The Imo State-born Ekeh imagined systems that could empower people, economies, and futures— and then set about building them deliberately, step by step.
As the years rolled by, his career unfolded with a quiet resolve: creating institutions, mentoring talents, and demonstrating that true leadership is measured, not by titles, but by the doors opened for others.
For the Chairman of Konga.com, success has never been only about numbers; rather, it has been about the expansion of minds, the cultivation of ideas, and the nurturing of ecosystems that outlast a single individual.
Over the years, his influence has grown with the same careful attention. He has successfully balanced ambition with reflection, growth with sustainability, and global relevance with rootedness at home.
Having attained this height, one might expect him to begin to slow down. But while time gently urges many to ease their pace, Ekeh, a graduate of Economics from the University of Punjab, India, continues to move with undiminished purpose.
Even at 70, the highly respected entrepreneur remains unbowed by age.
A quarter-century after founding Zinox Technologies Limited to manufacture computers, he still stands at the crossroads of vision and possibility, with eyes fixed firmly on horizons yet to be claimed.
His journey reads like a masterclass in intentional living. From modest beginnings to global recognition, his legacy is one of discipline, resilience, and enduring commitment.
At 70, Ekeh is not just a technocrat or entrepreneur; he is a beacon for future generations— a symbol of what vision, dedication, and world-class ambition can achieve.
Today, as he celebrates seven decades of life and legacy, the continent pauses to honour a man whose journey continues to inspire.
