The Edo State Innovation Hub has opened its doors for entrepreneurs in the state and environs to take opportunity of its co-working spaces and other facilities made available at the technology cluster in driving innovation and strengthening the tentacles of the tech ecosystem in the state.
The Edo Innovation Hub, a brainchild of the state Governor
Godwin Obaseki-led administration, is a fully-furnished cluster for technology
companies, fitted with state-of-the-art support structures, including
high-speed internet, power, indoor and outdoor workspaces, library, conference
rooms, training rooms, among others.
“It also hosts the South-South Innovation Hub, an
initiative of the federal government, domiciled in the Vice President's office
for youths in South-South Nigeria to leverage technology in solving everyday
problems.
Senior Special Assistant to the governor on Skills
Development and Job Creation, Mrs. Ukinebo Dare, on Monday said the Edo Innovation Hub is
arguably one of the best equipped and furnished spaces to run a start-up
company in southern part Nigeria.
Explaining that Obaseki is committed to equipping
youths in the state with the right environment to birth tech ideas, she said:
"We are excited to be opening up the Edo innovates cluster to budding
