We partner with founders, operators, and ambitious teams to design, build, and launch solutions that solve real problems across Nigeria and Africa.

Whether incubating internal ventures or collaborating with visionary partners, LiveLabs exists to transform opportunities into products people actually use.

[Our Companies]

Today's most innovative ideas.

[[What We Do]]

LiveLabs operates across several modes depending on the problem.

  • Research

    Deep sector investigation before any solution is built. Understanding the real shape of a problem -its economics, its people, its friction points.

  • Technology

    Building tools and platforms that address structural gaps in African markets.

  • Infrastructure

    Designing systems and processes - not just software - that change how industries function on the ground.

  • Direct Projects

    LiveLabs' own initiatives that create measurable economic impact, independently or alongside partners.

  • Partnerships

    Collaborating with institutions, governments, NGOs, and private operators on high-impact problems LiveLabs could not solve alone.

  • Entrepreneurship Enablement

    Funding and supporting skilled operators at the base of the economy through education, infrastructure access, and transparent investment systems.

  • We needed a partner who could think from first principles, just as we do, and help us build an enterprise engine that supports our ambitious growth plans. LiveLabs has done exactly that. They've partnered with us in a way that goes beyond execution. They're helping us build domain expertise while taking the time to deeply understand our business, which has made the collaboration incredibly valuable. Overall, it's been a great experience. I'm very pleased with the partnership, and my team has had nothing negative to say. That's exactly what you want in a partner.

  • Live capital has given DriveWell the speed to move faster than we ever imagined we could, giving us access to their developers as well as world class legal and finance departments in order to make sure that these parts of the business which has formed a strong foundation for us, is taken care of. They have also given us access to offices that also put us in close physical proximity with their amazing team and enables us work better, faster and become what we are today.

  • Working with the LiveLabs team has been an exciting journey. They know how to bring ideas to life. You simply share what you want to achieve, and they find a way to make it happen. What stands out most is their ability to execute while remaining professional, even when we disagree. They take feedback seriously, are always willing to engage, and stay committed to delivering the best outcome. I genuinely enjoy working with the team and look forward to partnering with them on many more projects. It's been a wonderful experience.
