Agógò Network App Concept

Ogechi Chidebell was inspired to create her winning entry in the Student Startup Challenge (SSC), an app called Agogo Network. Named for the agogo, a gong-like instrument used in ancient Nigeria to announce important events, Chidebell’s platform would provide listings and reviews for restaurants, tailors and beauty salons, as well as events and entertainment. “It’s creating a Yelp for Nigeria,” Chidebell says. Few Nigerian small business owners can afford websites, Chidebell says. Yet Nigeria currently has one of the biggest telecommunications industries in the world. Chidebell is proud to provide innovate technology for her country.

This was a design concept for Ogechi. The app is currently under development at the UWM App Brewery.
