Startup & diaspora desk

Building in Nigeria, from wherever you are.

A point of entry for diaspora founders, international investors and venture-backed startups navigating business decisions in Nigeria.

Cross-border advisory

Local context for global plans.

Entering a new market involves more than registration. Founders need to understand ownership, contracts, regulatory obligations and the decisions that shape future investment.

Our desk is designed for US-, UK- and internationally based founders exploring Nigeria, as well as technology companies planning their next stage here. We help frame the legal questions and coordinate the scope of an appropriate instruction.

How the desk can help.

Set the foundations

Discuss entity structures, founders’ agreements and the legal path to operating in Nigeria.

Plan for investment

Review commercial documentation, transaction readiness and points that matter to investors.

Navigate obligations

Identify relevant regulatory, data and sector-specific questions before they become expensive surprises.
