Prior to the establishment of 9ijakids, Titi worked in the banking sector before joining KPMG, where she worked for over 10 years providing business solutions to clients across several industries; Telecom, Financial Services, Oil and Gas. She was also the Chairperson of Bethesda Child Support Agency, an NGO that provides free education to children across poor and underprivileged communities across sub-Saharan Nigeria.
As an experienced Consultant, solving problems and delivering value is Titi’s area of specialization. Her journey into entrepreneurship is therefore a logical one, according to her “Consulting is about solving business problems.” Recognizing the challenges associated with children’s learning abilities through her personal parenting experience, she co-founded the 9ijakids app alongside two of her sisters, Yeside Ogunremi and Dayo Amusu, who are all passionate about enhancing children’s learning experiences and revolutionizing learning across Nigeria.
The idea for the company came to her when one of her children who loved playing games did not enjoy learning and would always postpone reading and other learning activities.
Titi’s experience in management consulting which requires a great deal of brainstorming to help companies solve their challenges provided her with the key skills to create the 9ijakids app. Titi’s invention has not only helped kids to improve their learning abilities but has also supported parents through their parenting journey.
In 2020, Titi was selected as one of the Leading Ladies Africa 100 inspiring women.
