Community-Curated Event Discovery for Nigeria

EventScout is a community-driven event discovery platform that helps Nigerian students and young professionals find local events through social curation. Unlike traditional event platforms that rely on paid promotions, we use an upvote system (inspired by Product Hunt) where the community surfaces the best events — ensuring quality over quantity.

How it works

• Community members submit local events.
• Other users upvote events they think are worth attending.
• Top-voted events in each city are featured in a weekly email digest.

Initial focus

We're starting with campus markets across Nigeria's 6 geopolitical zones — covering ~30 cities and 100+ campuses. Our primary audience is students and young professionals who currently discover events through scattered WhatsApp groups and Instagram posts.

Audience & scale

We target a demographic of 2M+ students who want a trusted, curated feed of local events rather than noise. EventScout makes it easy to discover what’s actually worth attending in your city.

Business model

• Featured event placements in email newsletters ($200–$500 / placement).
• Google AdSense on high-traffic pages.
• Future premium features for event organizers.

Why EventScout?

With minimal competition in the Nigerian market and a Product Hunt-inspired model, EventScout is positioned to become the go-to platform for local event discovery across Africa.
