AI-Powered Business Breakthrough — Transforming 240 Nigerian entrepreneurs, founders and developers into market leaders. Fully funded. No cost to participants.
Only those ready to deploy AI right now — not someday
From brand story to hackathon stage — practical AI output from the very first session
Understand how large language models actually work, why data quality matters, and how to use AI responsibly — avoiding hallucinations, bias, and ethical pitfalls that destroy credibility.
Craft a compelling brand narrative and leave with a complete kit — bios, taglines, post copy and ad visuals — generated in your authentic voice using Meta AI tools, ready to publish from Day 1.
Spot what is catching fire before competitors, ride the news cycle with precision, and produce hooks, posts and short-form video that keep your business on everyone's lips — automatically.
Generate ad-quality images, short-form video and Nigerian-accent voiceover without a studio budget. A complete creative pipeline — on demand, at scale, inside your existing workflow.
Adapt messaging to Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo and Pidgin audiences using Meta's open language models and surface untapped local market insight before distant competitors even notice it.
Draft pitches, crisis responses, staff messages and investor updates with emotional intelligence built in — then deploy an AI comms assistant so your brand speaks consistently around the clock.
Move from raw business concept through market testing to a working prototype — mentored every step. Present a validated idea, go-to-market plan and Startup-in-a-Box at the Ideathon.
Graduate with a deployed, demo-ready AI-powered solution. Present to judges, industry leaders and investors at the Grand Finale Showcase — and walk away with a certificate, contacts, and traction.
Physical + remote sessions · 3 sessions every week throughout the programme
Choose the path that fits your background. Both tracks lead to the same outcome: AI-powered results.
A structured journey from AI fundamentals to Grand Finale showcase
Instructor-led sessions covering AI Essentials, Career Advantage, Create & Communicate, and Build the Future. Each module closes with a practical deliverable. A full revision session brings Track 1 to a close.
Lightning-pitch your validated business idea to judges and mentors. Mentor pairings announced. Structured mentorship sessions follow — sharpening your product, go-to-market plan and pitch before Track 2 begins.
Live sessions across five creative frontiers: Story-Driven Brand Building, Virality & Trend Intelligence, AI Visual & Multimedia Creation, Cultural Intelligence & Local Market Resonance, and Expressive Communication & EI at Scale. Fridays are joint — Saturdays are Track 2A (use it) — Sundays are Track 2B (build it). Field exercises between selected frontiers push learning into the real world before the next module begins.
Hackathon briefs released and the build period begins. Mentored sprint sessions follow — architecture reviews, user testing, pitch rehearsals, and final polish. The Grand Finale Showcase sees all teams present their AI-powered solutions to judges, investors and industry leaders. Certificates awarded. Winners announced.
