Building strong ecosystems requires strong partnerships.

The ISN Hubs Board had a productive meeting with the Director-General of the National Council for Arts and Culture, Mr. Obi Asika, alongside members of his management team, to deepen our collaboration and explore new opportunities to strengthen Nigeria’s innovation and creative ecosystems.

As a network that is home to numerous creative hubs across the country, ISN recognises the immense potential of the creative economy as a driver of jobs, entrepreneurship and economic growth. We appreciate the National Council for Arts and Culture for being a valued partner over the years and for its continued commitment to supporting innovation, creativity and enterprise development.

We look forward to translating these conversations into impactful collaborations that create more opportunities for creatives, entrepreneurs and innovation hubs across Nigeria.
