From August 3rd to 9th, 2025, the University of Lagos (UNILAG) came alive as Versity Capital took center stage during Femi Gbajabiamila Hall Week, turning the campus into a launchpad for future leaders and innovators.

The flagship Career Day wasn’t just an event—it was a movement.

Founded by talent strategist and investor ’Seun Johnson, Versity Capital exists to bridge the often-ignored gap between academic learning and real-world earning for African undergraduates.

Over the course of the week, students engaged in high-value dialogues with industry leaders like Aramide Balogun of Microsoft and Bukola Reis of Molaran & Reis Consultancy.

The highlight? Pitch Your Hustle, where six student-entrepreneurs pitched live, with Darah Pizza & Edibles walking away with ₦350,000 in seed funding and three months of free internet.

Versity Capital also celebrated culture, sponsoring the Hall’s “House of Assembly” pageant and awarding ₦150,000 each to the crowned President and First Lady, and more.

For ’Seun Johnson, this wasn’t charity – it was strategy.

“We’re here to raise the value system, sharpen financial literacy, and inspire self-reliance before graduation,” he explains.

With funding, mentorship, and access to networks, Versity Capital is equipping undergraduates to compete globally while solving problems locally.

Undergraduates across the nation and continent can continue to interact with Versity Capital through its growing digital community – by following @VersityCapital across social media, engaging with resources and mentorship opportunities, and exploring the platform’s upcoming website: www.versitycapital.com. The mission is clear: plant the seeds for an economic renaissance – one student, one idea, one opportunity at a time.
