Africa's stadiums are full. The talent is world-class. The problem is the infrastructure that carries the game to the world doesn't exist yet at scale. SSA is building it.
Africa's sports industry is commercially underserved — not for lack of talent, passion, or audiences. The infrastructure that makes professional broadcast possible simply does not exist at scale.
SSA, SSN, and APA are structurally separate but strategically integrated. Infrastructure. Demand. Talent. Each layer makes the others stronger.
Designs and deploys portable Stadium Nodes, fiber-based event circuits, REMI workflows, and a centralized NOC. Infrastructure-only — never touches content rights.
Secures non-exclusive event rights, produces premium live sports, licenses content to broadcasters and streaming platforms, and sells sponsorship integrations.
A nomadic pan-African broadcast training institution. Registered in Rwanda. Builds the next generation of African sports production professionals.
The traditional OB truck model deploys a vehicle the size of a bus, a crew of 20–40 people, and $10,000+ in daily costs to produce a single event. SSA's Stadium Node replaces all of that with portable infrastructure that permanently lives in the venue and connects to a centralized remote operations center.
The REMI (Remote Integration) workflow is proven at the highest levels of North American professional sport. SSA is the first deployment of this model at continental scale in Africa.
SSA scales only where utilization is proven. Each phase is disciplined, capital-efficient, and anchored to real event demand.
Two landmark events define the near and long-term infrastructure opportunity. SSA's node footprint is designed to be ready for both.
The Africa Cup of Nations returns to East Africa in 2027 with Kenya as host — geographically adjacent to Kigali. By tournament time, SSA's Kigali node is operational, the African NOC is active, and SSA is positioned as established local production infrastructure for broadcasters covering the continent's biggest football event.
The 2030 World Cup will co-host across Africa, Europe, and South America — with Morocco as the primary African host. African venues will require broadcast-grade remote production infrastructure at a scale never previously demanded on the continent. SSA's Year 3 footprint of 8–10 nodes lands directly inside the host broadcast infrastructure build window.
SSA's architecture is modeled on proven REMI workflows executed at the highest level of professional sport — by the person building it.
Iyiola brings direct operational experience running remote sports production infrastructure at the highest level of North American professional sport. His work spans live broadcast systems, signal operations, and advanced camera infrastructure across five major leagues.
He is a Pan-African journalist and documentary storyteller with deep roots in Nigerian broadcast institutions — bringing both the technical depth of North American production and the institutional knowledge of African media markets to SSA's founding vision.
SSA is seeking $600K–$700K in Year 1 capital. We are open to conversations with impact investors, DFIs, sports-focused funds, and strategic partners with distribution or connectivity assets in Africa.
