My active engagement in the UK innovation ecosystem began on December 25, 2024, with a pivotal journey from Abuja to London. This special assignment marked my transition to direct, on-the-ground contribution.
Induction into the Innovate UK Business Growth Program
A major breakthrough in 2025 was my induction into the UK Government’s Innovate UK Business Growth Program. This prestigious program is dedicated to scaling high-potential, innovation-led businesses.
This milestone reinforced the commercial relevance, scalability, and international importance of my work such as the Unity Board AI/IoT STEAM Education Platform.
2025 Focus: Translating Hard-Tech Innovation into Deployable Impact
Throughout 2025, my focus has been on translating hard-tech innovation into deployable impact, particularly through the collaboration between DAQaaS UK Ltd and TD4PAI Hardtech Hub, where TD4PAI serves as the technical and deployment partner.
I am currently on a working visit to TD4PAI Hardtech Hub, Nigeria, supporting the deployment of Intelligent Asset Management Systems across:
- Waste Management
- Fuel Management
- Climate & Environmental Monitoring
- Power & Energy Management
Deploying solutions in real-world settings validates and refines their practical application, demonstrating a core innovation principle. This hands-on approach also enhances the commercial readiness of UK-facing platforms such as DAQaaS and DAQair, guaranteeing scalable, resilient, and high-value outcomes.
Leveraging a Dual UK-Nigeria Perspective for Broader Impact
This dual UK–Nigeria perspective has enabled contributions that extend beyond new technologies, adding clarity, discipline, and delivery confidence to the UK innovation ecosystem.
Agu
My work is strategically aligned with leading UK innovation bodies like Innovate UK and UK Research and Innovation. This partnership ensures a strong focus on tangible impact, practical deployment, and commercial viability.
Looking Ahead
The strategic focus for the coming period is on consolidation through pilot deployments and deeper international collaboration. This effort is aimed at scaling intelligent infrastructure solutions that deliver measurable value for both the public and industrial sectors.
Wishing everyone a productive and impactful 2026.
