Enterprise Computing Ltd. (ECL) has named Seth Donkor as its new Chief Executive Officer. On 31st December 2023, Jake Oyortey stepped down as CEO to be a full-time board member of the company.
Being CEO is a new phase, but Mr. Donkor is far from being a new face. In over a decade of ECL’s existence, he has been key in its transformation from an early-stage tech startup to the global giant it is today. He graduated from the University of Cape Coast with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics and Statistics, and has various industry trainings and certifications in Information Security, ISO, Cloud, Product Development, AI, Blockchain and Project Management, among others.
Mr. Donkor has also been involved in complex system deployment for leading institutions in Africa as well as being a winner of the NetApp Insight award in Berlin, Germany – 2017. He was part of the ECL team involved in Stanford University’s SEED transformation programme that helped craft the organisation’s transformation plan.
Having joined ECL, his remarkable ascent through the company’s ranks – from Systems Engineer to Systems Lead, Technical Manager and ultimately to Chief Technology Officer, attests to his exceptional leadership and technical prowess. Over the past 12 years, he has played a pivotal role in building and shaping a world-class technology team, as well as contributing immensely to the organisation’s growth and expansion to other regions.
Ms. Xuelian Chi, a global HR consultant and Board Member of ECL, commented on the appointment of Mr. Donkor as the new CEO, saying: “Seth’s journey within ECL is exemplary, marked by visionary leadership. I have witnessed first-hand his ability to drive innovation, foster a collaborative work culture and navigate the complexities of our industry. His promotion to CEO is a testament of his strategic vision and steadfast dedication to the organisation’s success. Under Seth’s leadership, I am confident that ECL will thrive – delivering cutting-edge solutions and maintaining its position as a trusted global partner”.
Mr. Donkor has been instrumental in propelling ECL to the technology industry’s forefront. Going forward, it is evident that his enthusiasm for embracing innovative technologies and fostering a culture of transparency will be instrumental in driving ECL’s continued growth and market leadership.
