MEET FOPE
Fope makes business make sense.
Fope Nkwocha is a business educator, speaker and business growth strategist who teaches the practical skills behind getting customers, making sales and growing something that matters.
Her career has taken her from the Ontario government to Google Canada and entrepreneurship, giving her a front-row seat to how ideas become businesses—and where they tend to get stuck. She has spent more than a decade working across marketing, sales, business strategy and execution, and has taught business and marketing at the post-secondary level.
Today, Fope brings those experiences to the stage, helping entrepreneurs and professionals make smarter decisions about how they market, sell and move their ideas forward.
Her talks are practical, candid and grounded in real life—not business theory for business theory's sake. She has a knack for taking something that feels complicated and making people think, “Oh. I get it now.”
Outside of business, Fope is a wife, author, entrepreneur and lifelong learner who has never been particularly good at doing just one thing—which may be exactly why she understands the people she speaks to so well.
