About Eloka

Eloka Agu is a Black British creative with a dynamic career as an entrepreneur, industrial designer, writer, and philanthropist. Born to Nigerian immigrants, he showcased exceptional creativity and drive from a young age, earning recognition in the UK at just 15 years old for his outstanding speaking skills. His talents were further acknowledged when he was named a Young Global Scholar by Yale University at 17.

By the age of 19, Eloka had worked at Google Inc., Goldman Sachs, Accenture, and the Houses of Parliament. At 20, while still at university, he founded his first company, Keakie, by assembling a team of creatives across music, advertising, technology, and design. Under his leadership, Keakie grew to a £20 million valuation, 200,000 monthly users, and 1,000 curated DJs by the age of 24, before transitioning to the board and eventually being acquired by Defected Records, a legacy British House music record label.

He graduated with a dual Master’s in Design & Engineering from Imperial College London (ranked best college 2nd in the world) and the Royal College of Art (ranked best art college in the world for 10 years in a row), before then creating a design and engineering innovation studio that specialises in creating digital experiences for emerging technologies. His studio, Satellite Labs, has worked on a range of technologies including artificial intelligence, robotics, additive manufacturing, virtual reality and physical-digital interfaces. His work has driven significant value for the likes of industry leaders such as blockchain industry leader Mysten Labs, and has received recognition from prestigious organisations such as Logitech Inc.
