About Us
International experience, local knowledge.
OUR MISSION
Dimax has been encouraged by how technology is being leveraged across the continent to drive efficiencies in long standing industries such as agriculture, banking and health and believe Africa has only just scratched the surface in terms of harnessing the true value of what technology can do to drive enterprise, education, economic development and empowerment.
As internet penetration increases year on year, mobile adoption and apps usage soars, increasing urbanisation, growing middle class and youth population across the continent, in addition to a global diasporan community, African consumers are becoming more connected , looking outside of traditional channels for information, fun and shopping.
Connected customers have more choice and are therefore more demanding, requiring tailored, personalised and sophisticated digital experiences.
Founded by Joanna Diana Steele and Claudy Pinnock Makilanda, our mission is to help businesses adapt to the ever-changing behaviour of the connected consumer by delivering bespoke, flexible digital strategies enabling companies to create quality products, services and experiences that better serve their customers to drive business growth.

WHY WORK WITH US
Quite often, companies think they can hire somebody with knowledge of multiple channels; be a copywriter, designer, have strategic and analytical expertise all rolled up in one. This is an unrealistic expectation, and if you hire one person to do all of that, the reality is, you are likely to fail.
​
The Dimax team is multifaceted with all the aforementioned skillsets and much more. We offer a personal service, integrating into your business, becoming an extension of your team.
We have over 20 years' combined digital marketing and ecommerce experience working with a variety of organisations within tech, FMCG, finance and creative industries.
​
With our diverse and vibrant team and partnerships, we have a unique dynamic that combines international experience with local knowledge and our award-winning expertise helps B2C businesses achieve their marketing goals.
OUR TEAM & PARTNERS
We are a growing dynamic team with a wealth of international experience and local knowledge. We have a presence in the UK (London) and Ghana (Accra) and leverage on our network of partners to expand our bandwidth as required.
