SAVA started in a living room in Anthony, Maryland, Lagos. Oluwasegun, known as the God of Growth, had spent over a decade across fashion, finance, and commerce. Placing models in Paris, Milan, and New York. Growing GoMoney (a product of Sterling Bank) and Kuda Bank to millions of customers. Everywhere he worked, he could see what the business could become before the people running it could. That divine intelligence deserved to reach more than one business at a time. So he built SAVA.
The Launch
Oluwasegun founded SAVA Global to serve Nigerian businesses by growing them. The first businesses SAVA worked with had the right product but could not reach enough people. SAVA built the systems that got them there.
The Growth
SAVA made a YC-backed food delivery business in Nigeria profitable and helped a Techstars fintech grow to over 200,000 customers. By November, SAVA launched the largest digital campaign for LG West Africa, driving app downloads across Nigeria. SAVA worked with over 10 businesses that year. Each one deepened the understanding of what actually drives revenue in Nigeria.
The Expansion
SAVA opened operations in Nairobi and started working with crypto businesses, growing their platforms to thousands of monthly transacting customers. After years of helping other businesses build, SAVA decided to build its own. SAVA launched a travel platform for young Nigerians. Visa support, curated experiences, flights, and stays. Nigerians were ready to pay for better travel, and SAVA had the proof.
The Evolution
SAVA restructured into two divisions. SAVA Studio builds proprietary products for Nigerian consumers. SAVA Lab builds the growth systems and platforms that get Nigerian businesses in fintech, crypto, and e-commerce more customers and more revenue. The travel platform went live and started generating revenue.
The Present
Nigeria's digital economy must grow. SAVA is here to serve every Nigerian business that has the potential to grow. One system. One business at a time.
