Nigeria’s first hub for creatives Nicademia Hub has launched. Situated at No. 315 Herbert Macaulay Way, Sabo, Yaba, Lagos, the hub is uniquely designed and endowed with infrastructures for Nigerian entrepreneurs to help them develop their talents to global standards.
Speaking on the launch of the hub, the founder, Valentine Ubalua said, “We have an Amazing Workspace, Recording Studio, Training Room, Meeting Room and Dedicated Office for teams. We also provide unlimited internet and uninterrupted power supply for the startups.
“Nicademia Hub organizes training, hackathons, incubation programs, acceleration programs, and competitions to create a creative ecosystem that can compete globally with the rest of the world. We are open to collaborations, support, and partnerships.”
According to Ubalua, the hub gives out its work-space at the rate of N10,000 per month. In his words, “Entrepreneurs get to use all our facilities. “Here is the best part, their monthly subscription gives them 30 Work-space credits which can be shared with their team, staff or anyone. (i.e. their colleagues can use out of their workspace credit without subscribing). They can also use their work-space credit to organize trainings, meetings, interviews, etc. without paying any extra.”
“We have an amazing Community of Animators, Scriptwriters, Graphic Artists, Storytellers, Voice Over Artists, Software Developers, Producers, etc. that foster collaboration, teamwork & exchange of services among each other. This, in turn, makes it easy for companies, organizations & individuals to locate young talents and provide job & employment opportunities for them,” the founder added.
