Shaping the future of Africa at Ventures Park: One Desk at a Time

#

Aug 25, 2025

Beyond being a coworking space, Ventures Park (VPK) is a support system. The VPK community members share ideas over lunch. They refer each other for jobs. They celebrate each other’s wins. Sometimes they just sit side by side and feel a little less alone in the journey.

There is real comfort in walking into a space where the generator kicks in immediately the lights flicker. Where someone lends you an HDMI cable five minutes before a call with a client. Where a community member notices you have been gone and checks in to ask if you are okay. Where your office mail can be received without a second’s thought about possible loss. 

These are not big things. But they matter.

Beyond being a coworking space, Ventures Park (VPK) is a support system. The VPK community members share ideas over lunch. They refer each other for jobs. They celebrate each other’s wins. Sometimes they just sit side by side and feel a little less alone in the journey. And in a country where the hustle can feel endless, that is powerful.

In many Nigerian coworking communities, the most valuable things happen outside of formal meetings. A health-tech founder meets a UX designer at the community breakfast. A writer gets free legal advice from someone at the next desk. Two strangers sit near each other for months, slowly become friends, and eventually start a business together. This is what happens when diverse industries and backgrounds come together in one space. Unexpected ideas emerge. New collaboration forms. Solutions are born, not from boardrooms, but from daily interaction.

The future of work is already here. And the spaces that will thrive in it are those that understand that what people need most is not just a desk and fast internet. They need care. They need belonging. They need places where they are not just working but where they are seen, supported, and inspired.

In Nigeria, that kind of environment is not a luxury. It is essential. Ventures Park understands this essentiality and is shaping the future of Africa through the Park.
