01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail
Nonzo, a singer with a magical voice lives in Lagos. Despite his talent, he faces a familiar plight shared by many artists in his community: poor financial documentation & the unending need for collaboration. He often ponders the need for creatives to support each other & keep track of their projects & finances without being overwhelmed. So an idea sprouted, a digital haven for the creatives of Lagos, “KolaboRATE”. KolaboRATE was envisioned as more than just an app; but also a sanctuary for creatives to merge practicality, passion & bookkeeping. The app would allow users to create detailed profiles showcasing their skills, portfolios & rates. So a creative can log into kolaboRATE, find a willing collaborator(s), agree on their rate (full or discounted) & as the project progresses, the app would meticulously document every transaction; paid or pending. Over time, this digital ledger will reflect the true value of each participant’s contributions, showcasing their worth & building trust.
01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?
KolaboRATE addresses the lack of financial literacy and organisational tools among creatives in Nigeria, helping them document their growth and manage their individual and collaborative financial transactions and projects effectively.

02.01.01 Mon projet contribue à l'objectif 'Pas de pauvreté'
7 - Tout à fait d'accord
02.01.02 Justification de la contribution de mon projet
The creative industry is growing and more creatives need to gain business knowledge to meet with international and local, private and corporate interest. The more trust is built in the Nigerian context, the more investment can be secured. This will have a domino effect on the entire ecosystem, bring more creatives and their families out of poverty. If this works in the creative space, it can be adopted by other industries too.

More creatives will be willing to grow their numbers, even in debt…which is how economies grow.

05.08 Justification de mon projet
Currently, there are various bookkeeping and accounting tools available for freelancers and small business owners, including creatives. However, none of them exactly match the collaborative, project-based, and creative-industry-specific focus you described for kolaboRATE. Additionally, there are specialized services like PUSH Bookkeeping that cater specifically to creatives, offering customized financial solutions and helping with financial management, but they don’t focus on collaboration or project-based tracking among multiple creatives
05.09 Qui sont vos principaux potentiels concurrents et qu'est-ce qui vous différencie d'eux ?
Some notable tools in the market include QuickBooks, Wave, and FreshBooks, which offer comprehensive accounting services like invoicing, expense tracking, and financial reporting tailored to freelancers and small businesses. For instance, Wave is a free tool that integrates with various platforms, while FreshBooks is known for its intuitive interface and extensive features designed for small businesses . Additionally, there are specialized services like PUSH Bookkeeping that cater specifically to creatives, offering customized financial solutions and helping with financial management, but they don’t focus on collaboration or project-based tracking among multiple creatives.
10.06 Menez-vous des actions au sein de votre communauté pour promouvoir le rôle des femmes entrepreneurs ?
Nigerian women are already entrepreneurial. A LOT of households exist with the women being the breadwinners, my childhood is a testament to this. My sisters are businesswomen and the Nollywood film industry is led and dominated by women. So although I seek to do more to help in this regard, Nigerian women have never, in my opinion, been lacking in this department.
