The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has launched a transformational project to transform Nigeria’s public sector assets in San Francisco into a state-of-the-art innovation hub.

This centre, which will be called the Nigerian Startup House, will be the starting point for knowledge exchange in Nigeria. This program aims to promote technology and entrepreneurship by giving Nigerians the opportunity to start a real life in the heart of Silicon Valley.

The center will leverage the Bay Area’s ecosystem to attract investors from around the world and create a thriving environment for new businesses and economic growth.

This powerful technology innovation hub offers unparalleled access to resources, knowledge and growth opportunities, making it an ideal location for Nigerian startups.

To facilitate this, the Federal Government of Nigeria, through the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy (FMCIDE) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), will continue to own the property. However, the consortium of Nigerian technology companies will monitor performance using private financing.
