Why Nursery exists

Nigeria has incredible scientific talent, but too often, research is held back by lack of access to equipment and facilities. Researchers duplicate expensive purchases. Students can't complete experiments. Institutions have idle equipment that could be helping others.

Nursery changes that. We're building a connected ecosystem where scientific equipment and infrastructure is accessible to everyone—from students working on their first research project to businesses developing breakthrough products.

By making equipment discoverable, shareable, and bookable, we're helping Nigeria's scientific community do more with what we already have, while setting the ecosystem up for rapid, sustainable expansion, and building the foundation for the next generation of Nigerian innovation.

Our Mission
