After graduating in 2004, he founded Axxess and worked with colleagues to create The Axxess Way, a concise, living document detailing a standard for maintaining a collaborative, transparent work environment focused on constant innovation that enables people to succeed. This daily commitment to maintaining an inclusive culture has led Axxess to win numerous awards nationally for being a “Best Place to Work.” In addition, giving back to the community and supporting humanitarian efforts is a foundational value Olajide has instilled at Axxess. Through Axxess’ corporate citizenship efforts, Olajide has benefited numerous Dallas organizations, including Dallas ISD’s Kennedy-Curry Middle School, Cristo Rey Dallas College Prep, Boys &amp; Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas, University of Texas at Dallas, Texas Women’s Foundation, Pat and Emmitt Smith Charities, Business Council for the Arts, Minnie’s Food Pantry, The Senior Source and the Visiting Nurses Association of Texas, among others. In October 2019, Axxess announced the largest-ever scholarship endowment program for computer science and engineering students at the University of Texas at Dallas. Olajide was recently named 2019 Humanitarian of the Year by Grace for Impact, an international non-profit organization focused on providing access to high-quality healthcare. In 2015 Olajide became the youngest person ever honored as a distinguished alumnus by the University of Texas at Dallas, and in 2018 was named to the school’s executive board. In addition to other civic and community boards, Olajide is the 2020 chair of the Dallas Regional Chamber’s board of directors and executive committee, and has chaired its innovation and capital task force.
