The Seyi Makinde-led administration has delivered another win for Oyo state as, in recently released rankings, Ibadan has now been announced as the city with the 2nd-largest Nigerian startup ecosystem.
The rankings were released a few days ago by www.startupblink.com, the world’s most comprehensive startup ecosystem map and research centre, and the list ranks 1000 cities and 100 countries based on an algorithm that calculates how conducive cities and countries are to startup growth.
This year, Ibadan made a massive leap from the 954th position globally, leaping 601 spots to 353rd in the world and 2nd in Nigeria, surpassing the capital city Abuja.
The governor has made it clear that turning Ibadan into a viable destination for startups is part of his long-term plans for the state, shown by the Oyo State government’s partnership with “Awa bike” and the recent SafeBoda and the Oyo State NYSC partnership.
