The 2020 edition brought together 18 startups with business and industry representatives as young and talented Nigerian showcased their solutions to some of the pressing challenge faced in the education, healthcare, oil and gas, data intelligence, fintech, and lifestyle sectors.
Some solutions allowed both parents and teachers to monitor performance of children from primary to tertiary level and identifying topics that they are having difficulties understanding. Other solutions ranged from devices that aid the visual impaired to read without learning Braille language; security surveillance that track movement of suspicious tools and activities; to fully automate and control all electronic circuits from your mobile device and much more.
