Erik Deitersen

Managing Director

Erik has spent the past 10 years facilitating business between Africa and the rest of the world.

His journey started with studies in business administration in Germany and Ghana, before spending two years working in Nigeria and completing a master’s degree in international management in the United Kingdom.

Erik’s curiosity to understand what drives business and the world in general led to his passion for business intelligence. His strong belief in honesty, objectivity, a desire to develop and a disbelief in a “black and white” view of the world are a strong supporting factor.

Up to this day, he is excited about the enormous business opportunities presenting themselves in one of the world’s fastest growing and most diverse regions.

In his free time, Erik enjoys his highly supplementary hobbies of food and sports, as well as travelling the world whenever time allows.
