On August 28, 2029, at 10 a.m. in Geneva, Switzerland at the international headquarters of Lombard Odier Private Bank, the top 36 international entrepreneurs of color who rock my world will meet to celebrate our collective achievements in global business at the oldest private bank in the world (which was founded in 1796) . These entrepreneurs have never been gathered at one place at the same time in the course of our work.
These men and women are phenomenal human beings. I have introduced five of them to my readers already. Those five are:
1. Ralph Malone, a principal in Horizons, LLC, the Global CEO of OxyNol Solutions, and one of three American partners in the U.S. rollout of Dake Rechsand’s Desert Farming.
2. Chandra Dake, a principal in Dake Rechsand, an international developer of innovative desert farming, water harvesting, sponge cities, and reforestation technologies.
3. Nichelle Gainey, the owner of Silverstone International and the Global President of OxyNol Solutions.
4. Olayinka Arowolo, co-founder and CEO of Nabirm Energy Services (Pty) Ltd, an oil and gas exploration company based in Windhoek, Namibia.
5. Kamar Jones, a principal at Wyoming-based Mine Plus Group, LLC, and board member at Pelangio Exploration, Inc. Toronto-based Pelangio is a Canadian Stock Exchange company trading under the stock symbol, (TSXV:PX)(OTC PINK:PGXPF).
In 2020, three entrepreneurs – Johann Jordan, Isaac Culver, and Dr. Donatus O. Mbanefo -- helped me solve the Navier-Stokes Equation, which was one of the six unsolved mathematics problems in the world at the time. We are writing up and publishing our solution for: (a) technical validation in scientific journals, (b) third-party proof of concept, (c) submission to the Nobel Prize Committees for Mathematics and Physics, and (d) the commercialization of our solution with naval forces in the Western Alliance and commercial sea vessels operators worldwide.
There are 28 other international enterpreneurs of color in my constellation of exceptionally talented strategic alliance partners. I will introduce each one of them to my readers over time.
I get to work with these 36 remarkable and gifted individuals every day. Their brainpower amazes and energizes me. They have enriched my life in so many ways. I have the utmost respect for all 36 of them. They rock my world!
I have the utmost admiration for Nichelle Gainey! Her leadership as the Global President of OxyNol Solutions and her entrepreneurial Slope Game spirit with Silverstone International are inspiring.
