Nigeria is Ready.
The Question is:
Are You?

AI automation is no longer a Silicon Valley luxury. It is the single highest-ROI investment a Nigerian entrepreneur, SME owner, or student can make in 2026. A hands-on, no-fluff annual workshop where you walk out with running systems, real frameworks, and a network that accelerates your business.

What Attendees Say

I came in thinking automation was for tech companies. I left with a working client follow-up system for my catering business. The ROI was immediate.

👩
Amaka Okonkwo
Founder, Amaka's Kitchen — Lagos

As a final year student, I didn't expect to keep up. But the hands-on format meant I built something real. I now offer automation as a service to local businesses.

👨
Chidi Eze
Final Year Student, UNILAG

The Akins Business Center model alone was worth the entire day. We restructured two of our business units within a week of attending.
