ABOUT
Meet Bana Qashu Young
Managing Partner & Founder
​
BanaTech Consulting was founded to solve a problem I saw repeatedly and lived through firsthand: technology decisions that look sound on paper but fail in practice because incentives are misaligned, power dynamics are ignored, or accountability is unclear.
​
I work at the intersection of technology buyers, vendors, and the channel, not to sell solutions, but to bring clarity where complexity and competing interests make good decisions harder than they should be.
BanaTech is intentionally small and selective. I work alongside a trusted group of advisors and strategic partners who share a commitment to independent judgment, ethical leadership, and outcomes that extend beyond short-term wins. This network exists to extend insight and perspective and not to dilute responsibility.
The Diamond Standard
At BanaTech Consulting, we operate by what I call the Diamond Standard. It is not a slogan. It is a discipline.
The Diamond Standard means applying rigor, clarity, and accountability to decisions that materially affect people, organizations, and ecosystems. It requires naming bias, surfacing incentives, and refusing false neutrality when the consequences are real.
​
This standard guides how we advise technology vendors, support buyers, and collaborate with partners, especially when the stakes are high and the path forward is not obvious.
Mission
Our mission is to provide principled, independent advisory support to organizations navigating complex technology and channel decisions.
​
We help technology vendors design healthier, more effective partner ecosystems. We help buyers reduce decision risk and move forward with confidence. In every engagement, integrity is not a value statement. It is a requirement.
Vision
Our vision is to reshape how technology advisory work is practiced away from transactional consulting and toward accountable decision support that transforms complexity into clarity and growth into something sustainable.
​
We believe trust is earned through independence, transparency, and the courage to tell clients what they need to hear, not what is convenient.
Core Values
Integrity Above All
We do not compromise independence, judgment, or ethics for revenue or convenience.
​
Clarity as a Responsibility
Complexity is not an excuse. Clear thinking is part of the job.
​
Accountability in Leadership
Decisions have consequences. We help leaders own them.
​
Unbiased Expertise
We are not paid to sell. We are paid to think, challenge, and guide.
​
Collaborative Growth
Growth should strengthen ecosystems and not distort them.
