 LAGOS

Lagos is a classic example of a fast-growing city, having transformed from a small farming and fishing village in the fifteenth century to a burgeoning megacity in 2010, when its population rose to over 10 million people.

Today, the face of Lagos is changing as a result of series of transformations effected by technology and a new style of governance. With a population of about 20 million, several innovations and developmental strides have been recorded. However despite the progress made, it is assumed that we are still scratching the surface of technology as the right policy to fully unlock the ecosystem still needs to be fashioned by the actors themselves.

In all, there is a clear understanding that in order to continue the pace of progress, technology must be brought to the centre stage.

THE IDEATHON

We call on key players in the Nigerian tech ecosytem to ideate on policies that will unlock/open up the growth of the tech ecosystem in Lagos.

SCOPE

Coverage spreads across different sectors ranging from talent, security, identity management, healthcare, environment, fintech, transportation, traffic management, etc.

TARGETS

Tech stakeholders, policymakers, venture capitalists, product designers, software engineers, creative architects, innovators, tech enthusiasts and principal conversation shapers.

Overall, the target are people who already play in that sector and can identify core limitations restricting them from accelerated growth.

Surveys & Research indicates that at least 3 of 10 years spent in Lagos is lost to traffic and an estimated $1 billion (about N160 billion) is said to be lost yearly to traffic congestion, yet Lagos population is projected to grow to 36 million by 2020. What do we do? We hereby request solutions that will drastically reduce traffic and help Lagos move forward. Have you done anything in this space?

About 14.6% of Lagosians are unemployed. That means about 3 million people don’t have jobs. With the daily influx of people into Lagos, this figure is rising daily and the trend will continue.

Absence of solutions will inevitably lead to a breakdown of social amenities as well as security. Got any entrepreneurial or vocational idea to share?

According to Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the IMF, Nigeria could save as much as US$9 billion – N3.24 trillion, by shifting government payments alone from cash to digital systems. It is a fact that electronic payment lowers costs of doing business, improves speed of transaction, ensures convenience and help businesses improve customer retention. In 2019, the need for integrated and innovative solutions around digital payment, integrated billing and reduction of revenue leakage are not negotiable. So do you have any Integrated Payment Solutions or Revenue
