This is aimed at poverty alleviation in the continent.  Dr Lamba pointed out that the firm is also conducting an early bird capital raising
through a private placement where high net worth individuals and other
qualified investors can inject a minimum of $ 65,000  into Agilitee.
“ We have completed the reorganization of our business, the corporate action was aimed at taking Agilitee from being a regional player to a global player in the field.
The company is in the process of forming Agilitee Europe, Agilitee UK, Agilitee
UAE and Agilitee South America in the next 12 months. “ Dr Lamba revealed.
 There have been new other appointments made among them the appointment of a former CFO of Tech Group, as well as the new Human Resource Director, Ms, Masego Motloba.The company has also appointed Mr Nkululeko Magwaza who is one of the founding employees of Agilitee as the new head of Inventory. Mrs Bonisile Roberts the current new CEO now owns 2,5% of Agilitee which is putting her net worth a little over one billion dollars and the IPO will make her the richest woman in Africa.  Agilitee is Pro-Women and is leading the charge in the bridging of the gender disparity gap.  On the re-organization strategy, the firm has grown from a continental based to a global company.“We had to reorganize our business because we have just grown so much that our products are in demand globally, as we speak we care concluding transactions in Europe, Australia, Asia and the UK which lead to Agilitee being operational in all this markets. We have recently set up in the US which serves as our second global
headquarters. We are looking forward to serve humanity and play our part in
ushering everyone to the New World.” Concludes Dr Lamba.
Agilitee is following in the footsteps of many global tech groups such as Facebook and other big techs like Uber.  These are IPOs that created billionaires and millionaires from staff to the early bird investors. Agilitee is setting precedence for future digital IPOs in terms in term of empowering the commoners and when this IPO is concluded, it will create a lot of millionaires from investors beyond the company’s investors. Facebook created 1000 millionaires and in 4 years the number had grown to 36000
millionaires and 12 billionaires, whereas Microsoft created 12000 on its IPO
and 147, 000 millionaires 10 years later for those who held to their shares
post IPO.
The firm is eyeing to create 100, 000 millionaires on IPO and 5 times 5 years post IPO for investors who decide to stay on. Agilitee is driven by impact over profit and it believes in this model if you are an investor who worries a lot then Agilitee is not your play.
