2022 FELLOW
CO-FOUNDER & CEO | WILSON’S JUISCE CO.
Seyi Oluwaseyi Abolaji was born in Nigeria and spent his elementary through to university years in the USA. He graduated from Stanford University, and after spending a couple of years as a professional football player, he returned to Nigeria. Seyi co-founded Wilson’s Juice Co. with his brother, Seun. Their initial $10 investment birthed Nigeria’s first federally-approved not-from-concentrate lemonade brand. Currently, Wilson’s Juice Co. is one of Nigeria’s fastest-growing beverage companies. Seyi sees Wilson’s Juice Co. as a platform to train the next generation of leaders to be mission-driven, profit conscious, disciplined, and operate with integrity.
