David Uramah

financial inclusion across Africa’s digital economy.

Driven by a belief that commerce should be secure, social, and simple, David founded Zeefas to bridge the trust gap between buyers and sellers by introducing escrow-protected digital stores—a modern alternative to physical shops. Under his leadership, Zeefas is pioneering a marketplace where every transaction is transparent, fair, and powered by cutting-edge technology and human-centered design.

Before founding Zeefas, David worked on several startup and community-driven initiatives aimed at solving real-world challenges through innovation. He has led projects in technology, media, and social impact, including ventures in grant writing, campus media, and community empowerment, demonstrating his multidisciplinary approach to problem-solving.

As a builder at heart, Uramah David combines creativity with execution, focusing on creating products that don’t just exist—but matter. His leadership style blends empathy, strategic foresight, and relentless pursuit of excellence, inspiring his teams to think differently and execute boldly.

Beyond entrepreneurship, David is passionate about youth empowerment, digital transformation, and sustainable innovation. He envisions an Africa where technology serves as the bridge to opportunity, and where every young person has the tools and confidence to create, trade, and thrive in the digital space.

When he’s not developing new ideas or leading Zeefas’ growth, David enjoys mentoring young founders, exploring new technologies, and studying global business trends.
