Commenting on the development, Aminu Umar-Sadiq,  the managing director & Chief Executive Officer of NSIA, said: “The Authority remains focused on leveraging the NSIA Prize for Innovation to propel socio-economic development especially by catalyzing the technology ecosystem, encouraging youth entrepreneurship, advancing innovative solutions to everyday challenges, and positioning Nigerian tech talents for global relevance.”

“The NSIA Prize for Innovation is the Authority’s multi-year commitment to identify and nurture early-stage businesses with potential for transformative impact in Nigeria,” he added.
