Finding Ikigai: Nurturing Joy in Everyday Work

Finding Ikigai: Nurturing Joy in Everyday Work

Introduced by our CEO Carlos Oba, the Japanese concept of ikigai has become central to our approach at Dots for. Everyone is encouraged to pursue their own sense of purpose and fulfillment, aligning their work with what they love, what they are good at, what the world needs, and what they can be paid for. In our daily endeavors, we navigate challenges with purpose, knowing that each obstacle is an opportunity to align with our individual ikigai. Whether troubleshooting issues or celebrating successful installations or other small achievements, we find joy in the process, knowing that our efforts contribute to something greater. Through teamwork and perseverance, we not only fulfill our professional duties but also cultivate a sense of purpose and fulfillment in our daily work. At Dots for, we believe that supporting each other in pursuing our individual ikigai leads to collective growth and success.🌟💼

Dots for at TICAD 9: A Powerful Reminder of the Value of Rural Innovation 🇯🇵🌍

August 29, 2025

It feels like just yesterday that our team had the honor of attending TICAD 9, Japan’s largest international conference focused on African development. It was a powerful and inspiring event that brought together innovators, decision-makers, and visionaries from across the globe all in one place. At our booth, we had the chance to receive distinguished members of Japanese government and other stakeholders and share the work Dots for is doing in rural areas of Benin, Senegal and beyond. What impacted us most was their genuine interest, shared by companies and other organizations, in what we’ve accomplished. Many recognized in our work a true opportunity both for partnership and for meaningful impact. But beyond new collaborations, TICAD 9 reminded us of something even deeper: the value of the work we do every day in rural communities. Sometimes, when you’re in the field—navigating challenges, solving problems, close to the clients—it’s easy to get caught up in the routine of the work and overlook the scale of change we’re making. The praise that we received at TICAD is a testament to the profound transformation we are driving in rural Africa, with impact reaching far beyond, across the world. Being there reaffirmed that what we are building is not just useful—it’s essential. The world is watching, and rural Africa is full of untapped potential. Dots for is making sure to unveil that, and we’re just getting started.
