We heard from stakeholders across several states who attended our workshops in Abuja, Lagos and Akwa Ibom.
Now we want to hear from you.

Following the completion of the physical validation workshops for the National Innovation Hub Standards Framework, we are opening the draft Framework to the wider innovation ecosystem for public review and feedback.

The validation workshops brought together stakeholders from government, academia, innovation hubs, startups, development partners, investors and other ecosystem organisations. We now want to ensure that those who were unable to participate physically also have an opportunity to contribute.

Whether you run a hub, build a startup, work in academia, invest in innovation, support entrepreneurs or contribute to ecosystem development, your perspective matters.

Read the draft Framework and share your recommendations to help strengthen it as we move towards the next stage of development.
