If you think startup events are all "eat small chops, collect tote bag, and go home", Abeokuta Founders Friday will change your mind. Last week's edition was all about innovation, bold pitches and serious networking. Six entrepreneurs were picked to pitch their ideas in front of judges and fellow business enthusiasts.

Among the lineup? Our very own Mubarak Babajide, founder of Huxxle, the platform built to give entrepreneurs a smarter and smoother way to run their businesses.

The energy was very high. The pitches were sharp. And after rounds of engaging discussions, the judges announced the top three. Guess who grabbed first place?

Huxxle did.

This win isn't about a trophy or bragging rights. It shows the value Huxxle is already delivering to business owners across Nigeria. We're moving entrepreneurs beyond the regular "buy and sell" hustle into a space where growth, organization and ease are the standard.

For us, this recognition is fuel. It's proof that when you build solutions that actually make life easier for business owners, people notice.

Big congratulations to Mubarak and every single member of the Huxxle community, because this win belongs to all of us.

And trust us, this is only the beginning.

Here’s how you can turn a social media page into a brand customers know, trust and are happy to associate themselves with.
