PolicIQ Launch - African Tech Regulation

[Abuja, Nigeria] — PolicIQ, a new policy–tech advisory and compliance intelligence firm, has officially launched with a mission to ensure that regulation never becomes the reason African innovation fails.

As artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies transform industries across Africa—from fintech and healthtech to education and mobility—businesses face growing scrutiny from regulators. Existing legal frameworks, such as data protection, consumer rights, and corporate filings, are already being enforced, and the consequences of non-compliance can be swift and severe.

"Too many brilliant companies stumble, not because their ideas are weak, but because they overlook the legal and regulatory obligations that already apply to them. Our job is to give startups, corporates, and investors the clarity they need to scale with confidence."
— Abdullah Tijani, Managing Partner at PolicIQ

The firm positions itself at the intersection of policy, law, and technology, filling a gap in Africa's innovation ecosystem where regulation is often misunderstood or treated as an afterthought. PolicIQ's approach frames compliance not as a burden, but as a strategic advantage that builds trust with investors, regulators, and customers.

"With the accelerating rise of AI and digital technologies, compliance and governance are no longer optional. At PolicIQ, we exist to make sure regulation doesn't suffocate innovation but strengthens it."
— Abdullah Tijani, Managing Partner

PolicIQ is now open for engagements with startups, corporates, and investors across Africa.
