Sometimes, all it takes is showing up. Shola’s journey reminds us of a deeper truth: That innovation doesn't thrive in isolation — it accelerates when vision meets the right ecosystem. From simply wanting a photo in San Francisco… To leading one of Africa’s most transformative tech exits. That leap didn’t happen by chance. It happened because someone stepped into the right room — where conversations spark courage, and community drives momentum. That’s what makes events like DTS Enugu 2025 more than just “programs.” They’re where ideas meet partners. Where builders meet believers. Where the next chapter gets written — and some of us get to hold the pen.

He Almost Didn’t Come Chinonso almost didn’t show up to the last StartupSouth event. He didn’t know anyone. He wasn’t sure if it was “his kind of crowd.” But he came anyway.

Come and be part of the ecosystem that’s building the future. 🎯 DTS Enugu 2025 🗓 July 25th 📍 Cafe One, CCB Building, around P & T bus stop, Okpara Avenue, Enugu.

The Room That Will Define Enugu's 2025 Winners is Opening. For every founder in Enugu, there comes a point where talent and hard work are no longer enough. You need leverage. You need access. You have the product, but you're locked out of the conversations where real growth happens. No access to capital. No strategic partnerships. No media spotlight. This is the barrier between you and scale. DTS Enugu 2025 is the key. We are bringing the decision-makers—investors, media, and enterprise partners—to you. This is your chance to get in front of them, not as another email in their inbox, but as a founder with a solution. For the boldest founders: A few coveted slots are open for our Solutions Showcase. If you believe your startup is among the best in Enugu, this is your platform. Get seen, get funded, get to the next level. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. The sooner you apply, the higher your chances. Don't miss the single most important event for Enugu's builders this year. Once these doors close, they're closed. 👉 Claim Your Access Now: https://bit.ly/DTSEnugu2025 The clock is ticking. #DTSEnugu2025 #TechInvestment #Enugu

The One Conversation That Changed Her Business Last year, Amarachi was stuck. She had a great product. A loyal handful of customers. But no idea how to grow. At an event, she met a startup founder who showed her a simple tech tool for inventory and payments. They spoke for 10 minutes. She implemented the solution. 3 months later, her revenue doubled. What if your own next big move is just one conversation away? That’s part of what DTS Enugu 2025 is about. 🗓 July 25th. 📍 Cafe One, CCB Building, around P & T bus stop, Okpara Avenue, Enugu. 🎯 200+ startups, founders, tech experts, investors & institutions in the same room. Your big business break might just be waiting at this event. Register to secure your seat - it's free! 👉 https://bit.ly/DTSEnugu2025 #DTSEnugu2025 #GrowthBeginsHere #StartupSouthEnugu #StartupSouth

Today, we had an amazing STEP Cohort 1 end-of-program event and it was my pleasure connecting with other great Founders who have (rather than complain), chosen to build solutions to life's many challenges. The after-event hangout with Mr. Ifedy and Mr. Austin was the icing on the cake; where we shared our blunt feedback on our experiences about the program and they shared more insights on how we can form the right network to grow our Startups. This is one priceless experience. My gratitude goes to the STEP team, Idea Africa and the UK Nigeria Tech Hub who have made this journey worthwhile. Thank you all plentifully! #STEP #UKNigeriaTechHub

Listen, building a business is no small feat; and building a business in Nigeria is not for the faint-hearted. So it gives me so much joy when I see initiatives that support other businesses to grow and achieve their goals. My startup (YuSocial) was accepted into the STEP NG program and I am quite grateful for this. The STEP program empowers startups with essential talent support for sustainable growth, while providing tech professionals with opportunities to enhance their skills through impactful work on cutting-edge startup projects. Thank you STEP NG for believing in our project and accepting us into your program. I look forward to making more impact with my startup from the assistance you will provide us. #yusocial #Steptech #startup
