SISIYEMMIE AT #STARTUPFRIDAY TOMORROW IN ABUJA!

I arrived Abuja today just in time for tomorrow's event, #StartUpFriday, if you want me you know where to catch me! LOL. 

StartUp Friday is an initiative of OIIE designed to promote and encourage new start-ups and foster relationships with investors, mentors and successful start-ups. StartUP Friday is a “meet-up” designed to bridge the gap that exist amongst startups, investors, mentors, buyers and other players in the Nigerian entrepreneurial ecosystem. It is to promote and foster resultant relationships that will help startups to grow and scale their businesses.

This 3rd edition of StartUP Friday will feature interactive breakout sessions and product exhibition in the early afternoon (12 noon to 3pm). While the evening session that starts at 4pm will feature Fireside Chats, “Tell Your Story” sessions by successful startups, networking, and Pitch session by 5 pre-selected startups. While the pitch session is not a competition, OIIE hopes to consider any of the 5 startups recommended by the panel of experts for seed funding.
