Areas of Activities

Onboard 10+ local innovators in Living Labs

Co-create prototypes with 10+ piloting stakeholders

80-100 demonstrators of circular agri-food innovations

AGLOBE Development Center operates a small station and a partial greenhouse, covering a total area of approximately 9 m², dedicated to initial testing and experimentation. Additionally, a larger Living Lab (LL), spanning about 60 m², includes a full-scale greenhouse and office space. These facilities are situated in the Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria.

In Nigeria, AGLOBE Development Center’s Living Lab is actively advancing innovative and sustainable urban farming practices through the development of aquaponics and recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). This integrated food production approach recycles fish wastewater through filtration and nitrification processes, enabling nutrient-rich water to support plant growth.
