La Keisha Landrum Pierre is a three-time founder and former CEO-turned-Chairwoman of Sahara Reporters Media Group, one of Nigeria's largest digital media startups, where she helped grow users from ~2 million to ~50 million monthly, and she co-founded the Civic Media Lab in Lagos with partners including Omidyar Network and MIT's Center for Civic Media.
