Odunoluwa was part of the collaborative process that led to the Nigeria Startup Act, a landmark law designed to support startups, align regulators, and create a governance framework for innovation. We explore: • Why regulation should never be ahead of innovation • What founders risk when they avoid policymakers • How women navigate male-dominated spaces like law and tech • Why mentorship matters in specialized legal fields • How to build a firm where women don’t have to choose between leadership and life “Regulation will be built around you if you don’t put yourself forward. ”#NigeriaStartupAct #WomenInLaw #AfricanInnovation #TechPolicy #DifferenceSheMakes
