Charles Oluwaseun Oluboyo

Chief Technology Architect @ ipNX Nigeria Limited

About

I am eager to see Nigeria become a world power, especially in the areas of information technology and social responsibility. I am a technologist at heart, with special emphasis on uncovering new applications to better the social, economic and developmental capabilities of the world around me. I am a strong believer in the basic good in all humankind, that given the opportunity, everyone will seek their own good and that of everyone else. An incurable optimist, with a balanced world-view grounded in reality. Current areas of interest are in all things cloudy, software defined and preferably open source - storage, compute, networking and connected services.
