here is a belief shared by many who care deeply about Africa’s future, that the best solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges are born within the walls of universities. This week, that belief was powerfully affirmed at Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti (ABUAD).
The Interswitch Discovery Series made its way to ABUAD’s campus, organised by the Interswitch Group in collaboration with the OGEES Sustainability Innovation Hub and Afe Babalola University.
Students at the Centre of Innovation
Students from across ABUAD’s departments stepped forward with brilliant, practical solutions to some of the most complex challenges facing Nigeria and the broader continent.

A Collaboration Built on Purpose
The Interswitch Discovery Series is designed to bridge the gap between corporate innovation and university talent. By bringing industry leaders directly onto campus, the initiative creates a dynamic exchange where students gain exposure to professional expectations while organisations discover emerging talent.
Looking Ahead
Events like the Interswitch Discovery Series are a reminder of what is possible when universities, industry, and development-focused organisations work together.
