What if your experience abroad could help build something back home?
A curated network of Nigerian diaspora professionals using their skills, experience and expertise to support organisations building Nigeria’s future.
The members platform is launching soon. Applications are open now.
You don’t have to move home to contribute.
Nigerian professionals across the diaspora have accumulated skills, experience, networks and expertise that can be genuinely valuable to organisations doing important work back home.
The Vemoye Diaspora Network creates a practical structure through which people can contribute some of that expertise — without leaving the career they’ve built.
What you get by joining.
Two clear ways the network is designed to be useful to you as a member.
Connect
- A curated community of Nigerian diaspora professionals across industries and expertise.
- Discover other members through the Member Directory.
- Meet people who are thinking seriously about Nigeria and want practical ways to contribute.
Learn
- Access curated webinars, conversations, network events and specialist sessions.
- Hear from people building, leading and solving problems in and around Nigeria.
- Reserve places at member-only events as the platform launches.
Membership is free and by application. Applications are reviewed before membership is offered.
Apply to JoinWhat we ask in return.
Membership is free, but it is not passive. The network only works if members are willing to contribute when a suitable opportunity comes up.
The maths of many hands.
One professional giving 8 hours a year is modest. 500 professionals doing the same is 4,000 hours of high-quality expertise flowing into organisations building Nigeria’s future workforce — every single year.
Nigerian diaspora professionals.
Membership is by application. We’re building a founding network of thoughtful, experienced people — from any industry, at any career stage — who genuinely want to contribute.

Building Nigeria’s future workforce.
Vemoye Foundation exists to strengthen the organisations equipping Nigerian young people with the skills, mindset and opportunities to solve real problems and build Nigeria’s future.
We help these organisations scale — the ones already doing meaningful work in STEM, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership development for Nigerian students.
The Diaspora Network is one of the ways Vemoye brings additional capacity, expertise and professional support to those organisations.
You’ve built expertise. Put some of it to work for Nigeria.
Applications to the Vemoye Diaspora Network are now open. Apply now to join the founding waiting list ahead of the network’s launch.
Free membership. By application. Minimum commitment: 2 hours a week for 4 weeks, once a year.
We’re currently building our founding network. Applications are open now and will be waitlisted until we begin reviewing ahead of the membership platform launch. Submitting now does not mean immediate membership — but it does put you at the front of the queue when reviews open.
