Project I2M supports innovations from
research, and also innovations resulting from non-procedural activities. This project aims to
deploy resources such that innovations at whatever stage can be nurtured till it is ready for
the market.
It will also create a self-sustaining incubator program for innovators who
want to take their products to market via a startup, to expose them to training on how to create
bankable businesses that can attract big investments. Special considerations will be given to
Innovations from Nigerian youths, women, and persons with disability (PWD).
Project I2M is fully funded by the UK’s Research and Innovation Systems for Africa (RISA)
