Chike Agbai is the founder and CEO of Azumo, a nearshore software development company that helps organizations build intelligent applications with top-tier engineering talent from Latin America. Under his leadership, Azumo has supported startups and enterprise customers alike—including names like Meta, Discovery, and Twitter—through a mix of dedicated teams, staff augmentation, and project-based delivery.
Before launching Azumo, Chike spent nearly two decades in investment banking, advising on over $100 billion in technology M&A, IPOs, and capital raises. He founded Azumo on a core belief: that cloud computing, open APIs, and AI would fundamentally lower the cost of building powerful software—and that talent to build it existed everywhere.
At Azumo, Chike blends technical vision with operational execution, drawing on his background in finance to lead a distributed team that delivers clean code, scalable solutions, and measurable business value.
