Tabulio, a Nigerian startup, has launched a social network to connect African tech talent with global opportunities. Founded by Tosh Ajibade and Chris Steve in 2019, Tabulio was released as an MVP in 2021. The social networking platform allows users to share their work, connect with employers, and network with tech talent. After a successful beta, Tabulio launched properly in May of last year and has already accumulated over 5,000 users. Tabulio provides techies with a centralized platform on which to share and showcase all types of projects. It also offers access to a community of tech talents to connect and collaborate with, visibility to employers, hiring managers, and global recruiters, and access to global job opportunities. The startup has also partnered with top learning partners in Nigeria such as Treford and Uranus to help facilitate education and upskill users. Tabulio monetizes via subscriptions, advertising, and commissions on a digital product, and has swiftly built a global audience.
