GROUND BREAKING IDEAS NEEDED

There’s no such thing as a bad idea.
SmartStart was established on the basis of some serendipitous beliefs.
In 2015, we realised that:

Ideas
There’s no such thing as a bad idea. Some ideas are behind their time and some are before their time but all ideas are inherently good ideas.

Skills and Support
Many Nigerians, old and young, have great ideas but they often don’t have the skills, resources, support, customers, and funding to make these ideas commercial

Opportunities
Problems are not really problems. They are opportunities. The Nigerian economy has many issues / prospects

Why Smart Start?

So, in January 2016, we incorporated and set up SmartStart Foundation for the Advancement of New Ideas in Emerging Economies.

SmartStart for short. Our job is to help you get the skills, resources, support, and funding you’ll need to put your idea in the hands of your customers.
