In fact they should be No. 1 on that list, except that power and infrastructure pose the major challenge in Nigeria. I agree, which makes No. 3 to 5 very critical factors.

So, I believe that a start-up hub should placed in location that is easily accessible by the University community and the VC community.

It is becoming clearer that we cannot afford to wait for the Nigerian Government to get its act together. We need to start actively thinking about what individuals can do to move the country forward.

We can start on a small scale and the expand. If you have an idea of what to to do, build a team that is committed to the course and launch. Capital is a major factor though but I believe we can work around it too. So, my suggestion is simple...let's get to work on our idea and focus on what WE CAN CHANGE @Niyyie & Loy,
