Digital Innovation Hubs Accreditation

Setting the standard for innovation hubs across the state through the KDIH framework.

Last reviewed 30 July 2026

Ongoing

The Kano Digital Innovation Hubs (KDIH) accreditation programme exists to ensure standards, compliance and recognition for technology hubs, startups and innovation centres across the state.

Organisations operating or establishing an innovation hub in Kano State apply for an Accreditation Baseline Assessment. Applications are screened and assessed against the KDIH framework; submitting an application does not by itself guarantee accreditation.

Applying

The current assessment round has closed. To request the accreditation pack and be told when the next round opens, contact us or call the number on that page. Hubs already accredited do not need to reapply between rounds.
