Taiwo Abraham is pursuing a doctoral degree in business at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. His research interest centers around sustainability as a function of the interplay among economic actors. Over his 15-year career in management consulting, Abraham, a three-time awardee of the PMI, delivered several multimillion-dollar projects in both the private and public sectors in North America, Africa, and the Caribbean. In addition to volunteering for the Red Cross and PMI, Abraham cofounded hopsglobal.org, a career mentoring network that helps migrating professionals transition to their new country while remaining in their choice professions. Abraham hopes to combine his consulting experience, doctoral training, and the Archer Fellowship’s resources to pursue the development of regionally-tailored and sustainability-driven dealmaking policies. He believes this will empower public officials in economically disenfranchised regions to negotiate with both existing and prospective economic actors of the region for a people-, planet-, and prosperity-centered development of the region’s economy.
