inDrive recently took centre stage at Founder’s Friday in Abuja to engage in dialogue with Nigeria’s growing innovation ecosystem.
The event, which draws over 4,000 startup founders, tech professionals, and changemakers monthly, served as a dynamic space for the company to listen, learn, and collaborate on reimagining mobility in Africa.
The company’s representatives — including Nigeria Country Representative, Timothy Oladimeji — joined panel discussions, interacted with local entrepreneurs, and conducted live feedback sessions aimed at deepening its understanding of user needs in an ever-evolving urban environment.
“Founder’s Friday wasn’t just a platform for visibility — it was a platform for connection,” said Oladimeji. “We didn’t come to talk to people. We came to listen. Because fairness in mobility can’t be imposed from the top — it has to be built alongside those who use and power the platform every day.
There’s a growing shift from algorithmic control to human negotiation,” Oladimeji noted. “It’s about dignity and choice — two things that shouldn’t be rare in mobility services.”
