A professional pharmacist with a masters degree in Business Administration with expertise in the area of marketing, project and strategic management, Yinka has had a fledgling career in the pharmaceutical industry. She started her career with Sanofi Aventis and became the first female Executive Director of the then Nigerian Affiliate, May & Baker (M&B) as well as one of the pioneer directors of Biovaccines LTD, an M&B subsidiary seeking to pioneer the manufacturing of Vaccines in Nigeria. She exited her career with the company as a Chief Operating Officer and thereafter founded the Megacare Group in the Healthcare sector.

As an entrepreneur, Yinka’s innovation for business expansion got her veering into the energy, defense and construction sectors, executing high net worth projects through Petrobridge Ltd where she is the vice chairman and co-founder.
