“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” – Nelson Mandela”
Quantum Valley embarks upon a campaign to build “steeples of excellence,” clusters of outstanding science and engineering researchers who would attract the best students from various Universities from Nigeria and around the world. In pursuance will embark on fostering close ties between University students and the emerging technology industries. The idea is to create an entrepreneurial spirit that will one day extend to every academic discipline at various universities in the country. The Quantum valley project will be very beneficial to the sustainability of the entire Quantum Valley settlement.

Hub for the whole Ecosystem
Hub for the whole Ecosystem We will serve as a hub for the whole ecosystem by bringing together students, experts, project leaders, entrepreneurs and innovators to foster collaboration, deepen skills and initiate new ventures.
QV Hotels on stilts, our overwater bungalows or stilted accommodations, are unique lodging options that provide our guests with direct access to water bodies while offering stunning views and a sense of immersion in nature. Qv Stilt Hotels are built above shallow waters, allowing for an unobstructed view of the aquatic environment below.
QV hotels on stilts provide a unique blend of luxury and nature immersion that appeals to travellers seeking both relaxation and adventure. The Qv Stilt Hotel with its distinctive design and prime locations make it a sought-after choice for romantic getaways, honeymoons, or simply a tranquil escape from everyday life.
These units are useful for
1. Fostering technological learning and innovation,
2. Creating jobs,
3. Generating comparative and competitive advantages,
4. Attracting innovative businesses, leading to both more jobs and a larger tax base,
5. Providing a platform where local and international firms can interact with a particular centre of knowledge creation for mutual benefit.
6. Provisions of the institutional framework, modern Services, and physical infrastructure that may not be available in the rest of the country.
7. Reducing costs through economies of scale in the provision of common services and facilities.
8. Buyers, producers, and suppliers who can operate in the same location, thus cutting the transaction costs of economic learning while establishing new standards and norms of entrepreneurial behavior.
Facebook’s hub will be home to workspaces, an event space and is to host digital training programs including Fb Start Accelerator Program and SheMeansBusiness. It will also offer grants of $20,000 in equity-free funding.
Over a three-year period, Google’s Launchpad Accelerator Africa program will offer $3 million in similar funding to more than 60 startups on the continent as well as provide mentorship and technology support.
“When local corporates see Facebook and Google opening up they’ll follow. And that’s good because we need more hubs, not fewer,” she said during last month’s Vivatech event.
As Enonchong sees it, the role of tech hubs enabling startups by providing access to training and networking could be even more important than raising money.
Putting an end to Africa’s Brain Drain with Research & Development
Losing your doctors, engineers, professors and other skilled professionals can be detrimental to your country. Brain drain is a topic with which many countries deal.
In a September 2015 open letter in Le Monde, the heads of 10 successful French start-ups pleaded with Silicon Valley expatriates to come back to a revived Paris full of new opportunities. China is another country where hundreds of thousands of educated professionals leave for education and work experience. Some return. Some do not.
Africa is no exception. The push and pull factors of this brain drain are wide-ranging and complex, and depend upon the African country. One might be ‘forced’ to leave because of war and/or political instability. The attraction of higher pay and better opportunities for one’s family might pull them away.
From the 1950s to 1960s, the term brain drain was first coined by the British Royal Society to describe the pronounced migration of scientists from the United Kingdom to the United States and Canada.
Developing from its original context, the term currently refers to the emigration of a country’s highly skilled individuals. It usually encompasses movement of university-trained individuals from developing to developed countries.
Dr. Lala Ben Barka, Deputy Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UN ECA) warned in 2005 that, in 25 years time, “Africa will be empty of brains”
African professionals moving to West to seek greener pastures is considered by the commission as one of the impediments for the continent’s development.
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) estimated that Africa has already lost one third of its skilled labor since 1990.
Ethiopia, Burundi,Nigeria and Ghana are considered as top three sources of emigrating human capital.
African governments are particularly lamenting on huge spending on medical practitioners who will eventually leave the country to seek employment elsewhere.
“If we have African leaders, governments and institutions which are creating a platform for success and opportunity, then you will increasingly get more talent wanting to stay,
The extent of the brain drain crises and its implications for Africa’s long-term sustainable development is however not lost on a number of governments, institutions, and individuals on the continent.
In fact, Quantum Valley is a sort of renewed effort to provide an enabling environment for Africa’s highly skilled professionals while attracting highly trained international talent to the continent.
