From over 7,500 applications, 185 founders were selected to participate in the Founders Lab Cohort 1, representing the creativity and entrepreneurial potential found across Nigeria.
A special congratulations to the Top 50 participants who are receiving grants of $4000 each to support the next stage of their venture journey. 🎉
This achievement is more than a recognition, it is a reminder that when Nigerian innovators are given the right support, mentorship, resources and opportunities, they can transform bold ideas into solutions that create impact.
To all our Founders Lab Cohort 1 innovators: keep building, keep learning and keep solving real problems.
The journey does not end here. This is only the beginning. 🇳🇬🚀
Congratulations to all our outstanding founders! 👏

And with that Founders Lab cohort 1 is a wrap.
Today, we celebrate the 50 high-performing innovators of Founders Lab Cohort 1, whose ideas, commitment and progress stood out throughout the programme.
We also recognise the 49 innovation hubs that helped extend the programme’s reach and create spaces for founders to learn, connect and build, alongside the zonal coordinators and deputies who contributed to making this journey possible.
From the founders doing the building to the ecosystem powering their journey, every contribution matters.
Cheers to what has been built, and to what comes next.

For project owners and site managers, what’s the hardest thing to control on a construction project?
① Procurement
② Expenses
③ Inventory
④ Contractors
Tell us in the comments 👇
WhatsApp + Notebooks + Spreadsheets = Procurement Confusion. 😵💫
One record is on WhatsApp.
Another is in a notebook.
Another is buried in a spreadsheet.
Then comes the question:
“What did we buy?”
“How much did we pay?”
“How much is left?”
When project records are scattered, keeping track of construction spending becomes harder than it should be.
That’s why we’re building Costra — to bring better visibility and accountability to construction procurement.
Verify. Track. Know where your money goes.
#Costra
Where does construction money disappear?
It doesn’t always happen through one major mistake. Sometimes it’s untracked purchases, unclear material usage, missing records, or small price differences that quietly add up.
That’s the problem we’re working to solve with Costra — helping project owners track spending, verify prices, and keep better control of construction costs.

Excited to share a quick overview of Costra and how we're validating our MVP with users on live construction project.
Grateful to the @iDICE_Nigeria Founders Lab for their invaluable support through this journey.
