We are excited to share our current investments, which reveal and solidify our strategies and tools. In terms of youth empowerment through capacity building, the Badagry Tech Hub is evidence of our goal to contribute our quota to combating poverty in Africa. Furthermore, the Livestock investment is a concrete representation of our ability to support social enterprises through strategic partnerships that provide funds, resources and a wider audience for increased impact.

WaveBay Capital provides patient capital to local solutions that create employment and inclusive transformation

  • Nigerian youths experience high unemployment and underemployment (35 and 65 percent). Unemployment and underemployment have a lot of harmful consequences on the country’s growth, personal development, and social structures (NBS, 2016).
  • Youths lack access to spaces to enhance their skillset. However, the young people of badagry are part of a tech-savvy generation and can pick up new skills quickly.

The Badagry Tech-Hub is a skills development centre dedicated to enhancing youths’ economic, human, and social capital via technology. Through a people-centred approach, the Badagry Tech Hub will assure the development of Badagry youths’ human capital. As a result, hone entrepreneurial, soft, digital, vocational, and idea-generation abilities which will ultimately help with the unemployment epidemic. The Badagry Tech Hub’s strategy is to provide a Training and Learning Centre to help Badagry’s youth develop their talents. As a result, more youth must obtain skill-based training for employment, decent labour, and entrepreneurship to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG4).

The rural sector, dominated by agricultural operations, has a high unemployment rate of 25.6 percent. We aim to empower young Nigerians to produce pork meat in adequate quantity and international quality for local consumption and export. As a result, residents’ lives improve by providing jobs and a steady income.

The investment is in line with SDG 2 no hunger. Small-scale farmers feed the globe, but they are disproportionately poor. Our initiatives seek to enhance production, raise incomes, and build climate resilience, allowing farmers to construct a safe and prosperous future as the effects of climate change worsen.
