Hank and Navini Omar symbolize a fast-growing generation of younger Guyanese who are pursuing conventional academic studies but keeping an eye on entrepreneurial opportunities as an option to salaried employment. Times have changed and the pursuit of a career in the public service is not what it once was. On the other hand there are niches in the business sector that remain to be filled.
Married less than year ago, both are graduates of the University of Guyana, he in Computer Science, she in Mass Communications and International Relations. Up until now Hank remains a part-time businessman having chosen to retain his job at the Ministry of Finance, Navini is entirely focused on building the fledgling enterprise which they have established along with two other family members, her mother and aunt.
