Aug 28, 2025

Ange Felux Yapo is a visionary Entrepreneurial Leader dedicated to tackling poverty in Africa through education. With a life mission aligned with Sustainable Development Goals 1 (No Poverty) and 4 (Quality Education), he believes in creating shared wealth for Africa by empowering youth.

Ferlux holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in International Business and Trade from the African Leadership University, where he focused on the impact of public university curricula on graduates’ employability in West Africa. His passion for education led him to write a Book Collection called “African Revolution”, where he explored the pressing need to reimagine education in Africa with thought-provoking titles like “A MOMENT OF SILENCE: Africa Has Killed Its Heroes in a Soup of Ignorance”, “ORIENTATION: Align Passion and Career”, and “EDUCATION OF THE 21ST CENTURY: “Teaching Method in GenZ”.

Over the past years, Ferlux founded FYL Africa, an initiative aimed at equipping young talents with brilliant ideas on entrepreneurship skills, through various constructive workshops and incubation programs. He is what we like to call the “Business Hacker.”

Whether it’s turning an idea into a sustainable venture, finding innovative solutions to complex challenges, or expanding businesses to the Francophone Africa market, he’s the go-to person.

This is only the beginning of his commitment to making a positive impact in his community and beyond, believing that education is the key to unlocking Africa’s potential and fostering a brighter future for the continent.
