Temitope Ogunsemo ventured into the murky waters of entrepreneurship when he attempted to secure his academic transcript years ago. When getting the transcript became a herculean task, he birthed the idea of a school Information management system that would not only improve the storage, preservation, and retrieval of academic records but would also position these schools to harness the benefits of digitization. In 2010, he founded Krystal Digital Solutions Limited, a company that specializes in the development and deployment of customized and service-oriented software applications as well as IT training.
In 2017, Krystal Digital has not only grown to become a household name in the digital space it won the Tech Company of the year award at the Nigeria Technology Award. In November 2018, it was awarded Most Enterprising ICT Organization at the Nigeria Entrepreneur Award Ceremony. Ogunsemo has received several awards both locally and internationally. In 2019, he was singled out as the Most Influential Global Young Leader at the Africa Europe Youth Leadership Summit in Gambia. In that same year, he was part of the list of the 100 Most Influential Young Africans and 100 Most Influential Young Nigerians respectively. Forbes Africa listed him in 2018 as one of the 30 Most Promising Young Entrepreneurs in Africa.
