Day 2 of the Nithub Innovation Fair 2026 reached its most competitive stretch with the Startup Demo Showcase, where six student-led startups took the main stage to pitch their MVPs before a panel of expert judges, competing for a share of the ₦4.5 million prize pool.
Moderated by Favour Urhiofe, Product Designer at Centra, the showcase saw Ayodeji Fadare, Product Manager; Oluwatosin Adetifa, Product Manager at Interswitch; and Joke Akintara, Product Growth Manager at Verto Nigeria put the teams through an intense round of questions on their products, markets and business models.
After a keenly contested round of pitches covering solutions across healthcare, education, legal technology, music, AI and financial services, and deliberation by the judges, Fladov emerged as the winner, taking home ₦2 million. Precision Health placed second with ₦1.5 million, while Reforma took third place with ₦1 million.
Congratulations to all six teams for putting their ideas on the main stage. We are rooting for every founder as they take these ideas beyond the competition and into the next chapter.
