Why Nigeria

Africa’s largest economy — and its most globally-scaled technology ecosystem.

Flutterwave ($3B valuation, YC/Tiger Global/DST Global/Avenir backed) is Africa’s highest-valued private technology company and processes payments for hundreds of thousands of businesses across 34 African countries — the most important payments infrastructure company on the continent.

Paystack (founded in Lagos in 2016, acquired by Stripe in 2020 for over $200M) is the largest fintech acquisition in African history and demonstrated that Nigerian B2B SaaS companies can achieve the highest global enterprise acquisition quality.

Andela ($1.5B valuation, SoftBank Vision Fund/Generation Investment/Chan Zuckerberg Initiative backed) has trained over 100,000 software engineers across Africa and placed them in global technology companies — the most impactful developer-skills-to-employment platform in Africa.

Interswitch (Nigeria’s first unicorn, founded 2002, Helios Investment/Leapfrog backed, valued at $1B+ in 2019) built the foundational payments infrastructure for Nigeria — ATM switching, interbank settlement, and digital payments for 35+ million cardholders.

Nigeria has produced Africa’s densest concentration of venture-backed technology companies: Opay ($2B, Opera/SoftBank/Sequoia China), Kuda Bank (African digital banking challenger), Cowrywise, Piggyvest, and Bamboo represent the full stack of consumer and enterprise fintech.

WAT (UTC+1) provides direct London business hour overlap and one-hour offset from Central European business hours — making Nigerian tech companies the most accessible African timezone for EU enterprise buyers and investors. Nigeria’s 220M+ population makes it Africa’s largest market.

FAQ

Your questions.
Honest answers.

Do not see yours? Drop us a line. A real person replies within one business day.

01Do you work with Nigerian fintech companies in the Flutterwave and Paystack ecosystem?

Yes. Flutterwave ($3B valuation, Africa’s highest-valued fintech) and Paystack ($200M+ Stripe acquisition, Africa’s largest fintech M&A) have established the benchmark for Nigerian B2B financial technology. Marketing payments, lending, and financial infrastructure platforms to US institutional investors and EU enterprise buyers is a specific capability.

02Can you help Nigerian companies market across Sub-Saharan Africa?

Yes. Nigeria’s position as Africa’s largest economy, with established commercial ties to Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, and Egypt, makes Lagos the natural anchor for pan-African marketing programmes. Building regional positioning and country-specific localisation across Sub-Saharan Africa is a specific capability.

03Do you work with Nigerian companies raising Series B/C funding from international VCs?

Yes. Flutterwave (Tiger Global/DST), Andela (SoftBank Vision Fund/Chan Zuckerberg Initiative), and OPay (Opera/SoftBank/Sequoia China) demonstrate Nigerian companies raising at the highest global VC tier. Building investor-credible brand architecture, US-market positioning, and growth narrative for Nigerian companies raising from Tier 1 international VCs is a specific capability.

04Can you help Nigerian healthtech and agritech companies reach impact investors?

Yes. Nigeria’s scale — 220M+ population, 40% agricultural contribution to GDP, significant private healthcare market — attracts IFC, Gates Foundation, USAID, and impact fund investment. Building blended finance, SDG-aligned, and development impact narratives for institutional and impact investors is a specific capability.
