At LISOL, we agree with most experts that the next wave of global innovation is coming from the Global South. We also agree that Africa, with its immense potential, is uniquely well placed. Our mission is to empower businesses across the continent to benefit from the digital age through exceptional IT solutions crafted by Africans themselves.
With over 25 years (since 1999) of expertise in IT consultancy, software development, and IT capacity building, LISOL aims to spark sustainable growth by drawing on local talent and the experience of Africans who perfected their skills in the West.
The world is changing, and the Global South is emerging as the new centre of economic activity. Africa is poised to become the land of unparalleled opportunity, with its youthful population, rapid urbanization, and untapped markets positioning it as the next frontier of rapid growth. Some experts even predict a surge in investments akin to a modern-day Gold Rush.
Founded in the late 1990s under the visionary leadership of Justin Njoh, LISOL was created to pioneer cutting-edge IT solutions.
As well as successful solutions in e-learning, e-commerce and management information systems (MIS) in education and insurance, Justin has spent decades pioneering IT transformations in the UK and globally, gaining first-hand experience and insights into the challenges businesses face in the IT industry. His current focus is to bring this expertise back home - not to impose IT solutions but to co-create them in partnership with local businesses, using methodologies that he has perfected over the years.
He is also focused on connecting a carefully curated number of highly skilled and experienced African IT experts in the diaspora with businesses in Africa.
LISOL’s approach is rooted in collaborative problem-solving. By engaging with local companies, we develop locally inspired solutions, while helping businesses avoid the pitfalls that are common in this industry.
At LISOL, we don’t just consult; we partner, we build, and we deliver. We are excited to power the digital transformation of Africa.
To equip businesses in Africa with world-class IT solutions, driven by local need, to foster innovation, resilience, and sustainable growth.
To see Africa lead the global IT revolution, building a future where its businesses thrive through bold, independent, and transformative solutions.
LISOL is built on the belief that Africa’s greatest potential lies within its people. Our founder, Justin Njoh, envisioned a company that would bring African businesses and talent together to solve the continent’s most pressing IT challenges, namely stop relying on foreign IT companies that do not understand the African market and charge more than they are worth.
With decades of global experience, Justin has seen both the successes and missteps of IT adoption in the West. His philosophy is rooted in the idea of serving Africa ourselves. It is about serving Africa by empowering its businesses with the tools and expertise they need to thrive, without relying on external solutions that know little about our needs and culture.
Foreign solutions offer foreign strategies that might only create other problems. This is why we want to solve our problems ourselves, creating our own solutions.
At LISOL, we do not just solve problems; we create partnerships. We believe in crafting solutions that are practical, tailored, and sustainable. Above all, we are committed to an Africa where IT is not just an asset but a transformative force for growth and self-reliance.
Join us as we build a future where African businesses lead the way, powered by African expertise. Together, we can make it happen.
