Olabanke Subair is a Creative Disruptor with a passion for the Arts and ecoliving . A graduate of Foreign Languages (French) from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife Osun State, she always stood out as an artistic child with an unmitigated interest in literature&fine arts.

Olabanke's ardour for all things art related led her to venture into full time entrepreneurship in 2016 while living with her elder sister in Lagos. During her stay there, she developed an idea to upcycle tyres into artsy&ultra-modern furniture after stumbling upon a pile of 20 used tyres.

Today, Olabanke has set up ecofriendly creative outfit, Cyrus45 Factory, which focuses on converting non-biodegradable waste into bespoke & ultra-modern furniture pieces through innovative & creative upcycling. It also umbrellas other creative expressions which offer interior and doodling services. Her hope is to disrupt spaces through creativity and innovation.

In 2018, Olabanke was privileged to be invited to the African Union in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to speak about her work with Cyrus45. She has also been featured on BBC World, Financial times UK, Guardian & several other media outlets.

She is the winner of the 2020 JCI Top Outstanding Young Persons Awards in Business, Entrepreneurship and Economy, in 2018 Cyrus45 bagged the AceAward for the Best Eco-friendly product.

When she is not mining her imagination for innovative ideas that will change the world, she is reading/binging on biopics or True Crime.
