Our mission
To give people in Owode and across Oyo State practical digital skills, a place to innovate and a community that helps them use technology to improve their lives and livelihoods.
About the Hub
Oyo ICT Hub is a digital learning, training, innovation and community technology centre in Owode, open to everyone who wants to build skills for the digital economy.
Our story
Bringing digital opportunity closer to home
Too many young people and adults in Owode and the surrounding communities have had to travel to larger cities to learn computer skills, sit online exams or find a reliable place to work on an idea. The Hub was set up to change that.
Today it is a shared public space where a secondary school leaver can learn to type, a job seeker can prepare for a digital role, a trader can take their business online and a small team can build and test a product with mentors close by.
