The NEO will feature several stages, including regional and national contests, mentorship programs, prototype development, and a grand finale in April 2026. Winning teams will receive seed grants and technical guidance to transform their innovations into viable business ventures.
As part of the official launch, the President of the Nigerian Society of Engineers, Engr. Margaret Aina Oguntala, FNSE, will deliver the keynote address, setting the tone for the national initiative that is expected to redefine the future of Engineering innovation in Nigeria.
In her remarks ahead of the launch, NSE President emphasized the importance of the collaboration: “This partnership marks a pivotal moment for Engineering education and innovation in Nigeria. The Nigerian Engineering Olympiad (NEO) is not only a platform to showcase the ingenuity of our students but also a bold step toward bridging the gap between academia and industry.
“Through this initiative, we hope to nurture creativity, problem-solving, and entrepreneurship among young Engineers, positioning them as key contributors to sustainable national development.”
The NEO represents a major milestone in advancing STEM education and strengthening collaboration among industry, academia, and government. With the commitment of its partners, the Olympiad will play a transformative role in shaping Nigeria’s future engineering landscape, driving innovation, and fostering youth participation in nation-building.
