In this episode of Difference She Makes, we sit down with Odunoluwa Longe, Founder of TLP Advisory and Co-Founder of DIY Law, to explore how women are shaping the legal frameworks powering Africa’s tech ecosystem.
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.
