The Federal Government’s efforts to boost the Nigerian tech industry have taken a significant leap, as 298 Nigerian innovators were recently showcased to global investors in London. According to reports from various sources, these innovators, hailing from the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, were taken to the United Kingdom to showcase their indigenous technologies.
The National Board for Technology Incubation (NBTI), an agency under the Ministry of Science and Technology, is spearheading this initiative. By showcasing these innovators to global investors, the NBTI aims to help commercialise these homegrown technologies and attract much-needed foreign investment into the Nigerian tech sector.
This move is a testament to the Government’s commitment to fostering innovation and entrepreneurship in Nigeria. By exposing these innovators to the global market, the Government hopes to create opportunities for these innovators to secure funding, partnerships, and collaborations that can help propel their ideas to the next level.
However, the exact date of the event and the response from the global investors are not yet known. As more details emerge, EventsNigeria will continue to bring you updates on this developing story.
