Hello my name is Lawrence John the Founder of indium6.com.ng and my goal is to change the African narrative and the conversation as Nigerians and as Africans. We as Africans have minimized our influence to the rest of the world, because we have neglected one vital area, which is the potential of ideas being the most valuable of all human resources, we have sat back and watch all the global forces shaping the rest of the world, and the best we could do is to be a recipient.
More so, we are right now neglecting the power of information technology, which if we fail to grab now we may never have a good grip of, just as the previous global influences, there is never a time in all of human history, life can be transformed so fast by marrying these two powerful resources which are ideas and technology.
Indium6 is the only indigenous ICT firm investing in your ideas, Indium6 is not just a software company/ICT we also run a Venture Capitalist (VC) majoring in investing in technological ideas, we go beyond just financing your ideas, as a matter of fact we don’t start there, we start by first laying a solid foundation, being in business for half a decade now we understands that ideas alone don’t sell itself we need an entire ecosystem to power it into fruition, therefore we provide these core processes:
1. Idea refining: idea is a human resource, and just like natural resources it also needs to be refined, you cannot used crude oil to fuel your car unless it has been refined into petrol, the same way ideas are worthless unless it has gone through refining process. If your idea pass our test, you will be invited to sign an MOU with us, for additional protection, our legal team will register and patent the idea.
2. Team/mentorship: As vital as this, most African entrepreneurs ignore this; the truth is you will need more experienced persons in your team, so you can attain success. You will be heading a team of 5, the team will have a legal expert and finance expert, and the rest are technocrats.
3. Process/strategy: Market entry is the concern in this stage, after making a product or prototype as the case maybe, you will need a success strategy to defeat existing competitors, if this is not done properly competitors may crush it, not to forget a workable process both internally and externally.
4. Funding/Assets: Financing, buying of needed assets and other resources needed for day to day activities.
5. Strong management: African companies dies because they ignore this last but equally vital part, this will determine the life span of your product or service as the case may be, you will need a team of managers if you looking for a long term productivity.
These is just a summary of the ecosystem we provide, of course it’s unethical for me to provide all the details here, for more information you can reach me through +234 8109076869 (whatsapp or sms only). I would like to answer the question why do we choose to invest in ideas?
Requirements:
• Your idea must be ICT inclined.
• It must solve an existing African problem (Security, education, transport etc.).
• You must be fully involved in all the processes.
Always remember that somebody’s idea gave birth to the following multibillion dollars companies: facebook, Instagram, whatsap, Uber, Taxify, Airbnb, Amazon, ebay just to mention a few, yours could be the next.
