In this thought-provoking episode, we have the privilege of hosting John Onuigbo, a true pioneer in the world of education and social entrepreneurship.

John is not your typical educator. He's a visionary, an innovator, and a force for positive change. As the CEO and co-founder of Foris Labs, he embarked on a remarkable journey in the midst of a pandemic to address one of the most pressing educational challenges facing vulnerable communities.

Foris Labs, a virtual science laboratory brand, empowers students with the ability to transform any space into a science laboratory through experiment simulations. It's an idea that's not only groundbreaking but also vital, especially in times when access to physical laboratories is limited. In recognition of its impact, Foris Labs was named one of the top three edtech startups in Nigeria by the Global Edtech Startup Awards in both 2021 and 2022.

In 2022, John was also recognized as one of the Top 20 young African entrepreneurs by the Regional Universities Forum (RUFORUM), solidifying his status as a trailblazer in the field.

Join us for an episode that explores the intersection of education, innovation, and social impact. John's journey is a testament to what's possible when passion and purpose converge, and we're excited to share his story with you.
