Wesley Ogude’s Empowerment

The remarkable story of Wesley Ogude, the renowned Nigerian-born Canadian business executive, entrepreneur and philanthropist may not be simply fortuitous. It was a well-laid-out intentional right from 2001 when he immigrated to the North American nation to pursue further career opportunities. 

He honed his skills by attending the SAP Academy in Toronto, becoming a Certified SAP Application Consultant, and subsequently leading the implementation of large Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software for multinational companies. 

His illustrious professional career includes leading roles in corporations, such as General Electric, CGI Consulting, and Purolator Inc.

In 2012, Wesley embarked on his entrepreneurial journey, establishing start-up companies in Canada, the United States, and Nigeria. 

He currently serves as the Group Finance Director of Canaccede Financial Group, a consumer financing group; the Head of Cash Treasury at Oxford Properties, a major Canadian real estate empire and Group CEO of Springwells Group of Companies, a prominent Canadian private equity group. 

Today, he has been recognised as one of Canada’s top business leaders for his visionary leadership and exceptional achievements in the corporate world. Wesley has successfully helped numerous high-net-worth Canadian professionals achieve lasting wealth through strategic initiatives and visionary leadership. 

As a testament to his commitment to empowering others and fostering growth, Wesley is hosting an exclusive international conference aimed at equipping seasoned professionals at the senior management or executive level in the fields of oil and gas, banking, IT, or telecommunications, with strategic insights to seize new opportunities and elevate their careers in Canada. 

The conference, to be hosted by Wesley’s Springwells Consulting in collaboration with its affiliate company in Nigeria, EMC International, will be held over six days, starting from September 12 to 20, 2023, in Lagos, Abuja, and Port-Harcourt.
