The past few weeks have seen founders, take part in various class sessions, of the Lagos Founder Institute.

From Founders, getting to meet the Directors of Founder Institute and Mentors, while having an overview of what the Founder Institute is all about, to participating in pre-pitch sessions, to the actual pitch and classes on concepts that define the pathway, for a start-up entrepreneur, such as revenue model, unique selling point, branding & design, guerrilla marketing, as well as, going to the market, have all combined, to make the classes interesting and worthwhile.

The Founders were divided into two groups, for a 5-minute pitch, each, with a 10-minute progress review, on the viability of their start-ups, by the Founder Institute Mentors.

The two groups ran concurrently. The panel session consisted of David Adeboye, Portfolio Manager, Stanbic IBTC Bank, Ife Olatunji, Founder, Metamorph,  Aimuan Ogboghodor, Co-founder, Space Guerilla, and Olamide Afolabi, Co-founder, Sanwo Touch2Pay Technology Services Limited.
