These individuals will represent the voices of startup founders and innovators from across the country, ensuring that grassroots innovators, digital entrepreneurs, and technology leaders play an active role in shaping policies and strategies that directly impact the growth of the Nigerian startup ecosystem.
The election process was coordinated by the Office for Nigerian Digital Innovation (ONDI) under the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), in compliance with the provisions of the Nigeria Startup Act (NSA). The SCF members from all six geopolitical zones nominated and voted for candidates to represent their zones in a transparent and inclusive process.

The inclusion of democratically elected representatives from the startup community is a landmark achievement for inclusive governance.
This development is expected to enhance trust between the government and the digital innovation community, improve the feedback process on policies, and foster a more supportive environment for young entrepreneurs to thrive.
The National Information Technology Development Agency reaffirms its commitment to building a thriving digital economy, nurturing startups, and fostering collaboration that ensures innovation becomes a cornerstone of national development.
