We've been sitting on this one. And we can't wait any longer. 🔥

Damola Adamolekun is headlining BFUTR 2026.

This November, he's on the BFUTR Main Stage — bringing the real playbook on how to lead with authority and build a career that turns heads in rooms that weren't built for us.

And for the next 48 hours? Your seat is FREE.

The job offer comes before the training. 👀

Most programs make you learn first and hope for the best.

The Obsidi® AI Career Fellowship flips it — selected engineers get a conditional Fortune 500 offer in hand before the AI sprint starts. You train knowing exactly where you're going.

Zero cost. Highly selective. Built for experienced engineers who are ready to stop reacting to the AI economy and start leading in it.

Three years of the OBSIDI® Awards Tech Executive of the Year, presented by Scotiabank — and the bar just keeps rising. 🏆

Daphne McRae. Alex Coleman. Krista Satterthwaite.

These leaders didn't wait for a seat at the table — they built the table, drove transformation, and raised the standard for what executive leadership looks like in tech.

Who's next?

The nominations for 2026 are OPEN — but not for long. You have until June 30 to put a name forward. If you know a tech executive redefining what's possible, now is the time.

bWE LAUNCHED SOMETHING NEW TODAY 🚨

Introducing the Obsidi® AI Career Fellowship.

A new AI career acceleration program built for experienced engineers who want to transition into AI-enabled enterprise roles — without starting over.

Not another AI course.
Not another certification funnel.

This is:
→ Offer first
→ Then the training
→ Then you start

We’re launching multiple cohorts across AWS, Front End, Back End, Web Development, and more.

Our first cohort is now open:
🔥 AI AWS Engineer Fellowship with BMO

Built for experienced engineers ready to level up into the enterprise AI era.

✅ Fully funded
✅ Built for working professionals
✅ Real enterprise AI systems training
✅ Production-grade workflows + capstone projects

More cohorts coming soon — this is just the start.

The market is shifting fast, and the engineers who learn to build and operate AI systems early will have a huge advantage.

Last night was DIFFERENT. 🔥

We brought together 60+ of North America’s top tech executives for a private mixer hosted by BOXX Insurance — and by the time the BFUTR 2026 Launch Party opened up, the room was overflowing.

Hundreds pulled up.
Music LOUD.
Room PACKED.
Real conversations. Real connections. Real energy.
Then the headliner reveal happened… and people LOST IT. 👀

This is what happens when the most ambitious people in tech link up in one room.
And that was ONLY the warmup.

In November, BFUTR returns on a bigger scale:
→ Bigger stages
→ Bigger conversations
→ Bigger access
→ Bigger opportunities to accelerate your career, business, and network

If you missed last night… don’t miss what’s next.
Register for BFUTR 2026 now.

What makes the OBSIDI® Awards different?
The community decides.

The OBSIDI® Awards, presented by BMO Financial Group, recognize leaders whose impact speaks for itself — through the work, the results, and the people they inspire.

As a past winner, Olutoyin Oyelade shared:
“Everything that is measured gets rewarded ultimately.”

From founders and executives to engineers, recruiters, and community builders, this is about recognizing the receipts behind the impact.

🏆 If you’re building meaningful change in tech, it’s time to step into the spotlight.

Nominate yourself or someone making an undeniable impact in the community.
