Kojo Boakye – Director of Public Policy

Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution of social technology.

There couldn’t be a more exciting time to join Meta to help build the next generation of the internet that is designed for the things that bring meaning to all of our lives – people, communities, and our relationships.

Kojo Boakye is the Director of Public Policy for Meta in Africa, where he leads a team that works to shape policy environments in order to create opportunities for Africa, Africans, and Meta.
