Our Story

A decade of deliberate growth

Founded in Lagos in 2017 by Michael Omotayo, Starks IT Consulting began with a clear conviction: African enterprises deserve the same calibre of technology partnership available to multinationals anywhere in the world. We started small — a team of three, one shared office in Ikeja, and an absolute commitment to quality over quantity.

Over the decade that followed, we grew into a full-spectrum IT consultancy with over 65 professionals, serving clients across banking, energy, telecoms, healthcare, and the public sector. Our work has helped organisations launch new revenue lines, dramatically reduce operational costs, and navigate complex regulatory landscapes — always with rigour and integrity.

We are proudly Nigerian, globally fluent, and deeply committed to building technology that lasts. Not the kind that impresses in a demo and disappoints in production. The kind that becomes core infrastructure.

Our Values

Principles that guide every decision

🎯
Precision Over Speed

We take the time to understand before we act. Rushing to solutions without understanding problems is how technology projects fail. Our discovery phase is non-negotiable.

🤝
Radical Transparency

No hidden costs, no scope surprises, no ego. We communicate honestly — including when things are difficult — because trust is the foundation of every partnership.

🌍
African Excellence

We believe the next generation of globally significant technology companies will come from Africa. We are proud to be part of building that future, from Lagos outward.

Longevity by Design

We build for the long term. Systems designed to be maintained, extended, and evolved — not rebuilt every two years. Our clients' investment compounds over time.

🔐
Security First

Security is never an afterthought. It is baked into our architecture from line one. In 10 years of operation, not one managed client environment has suffered a confirmed breach.

📈
Outcome Obsessed

We don't measure success in lines of code or features shipped. We measure it in business outcomes — cost savings, revenue generated, uptime improved, processes transformed.
