Context piece
- Nigeria’s Imo State launched ÓKÓBÌ, an initiative that supports groups rather than individual entrepreneurs.
- The model brings together extended families, villages or student societies to choose a business, offering an example for Bangladesh’s discussions about AI.
A Nigerian initiative offers Bangladesh a different way to think about building support systems around business and technology.
Called ÓKÓBÌ, or the One Kindred One Business Initiative, the programme was launched in Imo State in southeastern Nigeria.
Its basic idea is to support a group instead of backing one entrepreneur at a time. An extended family, village or student society comes together and selects a business.
