AkadaPlay, a groundbreaking tech platform, has officially launched with a mission to “Ignite a Passion for Learning” by celebrating and rewarding academic achievements among Nigerian students. The platform aggregates data from primary and secondary schools nationwide, identifying high-performing students to connect them with performance-based rewards sponsored by organisations and individuals locally and globally.
AkadaPlay’s reward-driven approach incentivises academic excellence, ensuring talented students receive the recognition they deserve while fostering a culture of educational achievement. By partnering with corporations, the platform helps brands align their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives with tangible educational impact. This aligns with the United Nations’ September 2024 call for organizations to integrate global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into their operations. AkadaPlay is specifically designed to accelerate progress on SDG 4: Quality Education, enabling organizations to allocate resources more effectively and drive meaningful change in education.
According to Babatunde Adenaike, Founder of AkadaPlay: “Our goal for the 2024/25 academic year is to deliver 10,000 academic rewards. These rewards are more than just recognition; they are a driving force behind improved educational outcomes, nurturing a generation of young Nigerians equipped to excel in a rapidly evolving world.”
Flora Ogunlusi, Chief Marketing Officer of AkadaPlay, added: “We’re creating a future where hard-working students, regardless of their background, are celebrated and supported. By partnering with schools and corporations, AkadaPlay bridges the gap between effort and opportunity, empowering deserving students with rewards that inspire continuous growth.”
Through its real-time data insights, AkadaPlay helps organisations track their impact, match rewards to performance, and support skill development.
The platform fully complies with the Nigerian Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) and aims to collaborate with over 1,000 schools by September 2025, reinforcing its dedication to promoting educational equity and excellence.
