How we Started

2013

Our journey commenced in 2013 as RIF Futures. During that period, we delved into engineering and scientific research concepts, including Automated AI and Photovoltaics, uniting minds to bring visions into practical fruition.

2014

We ventured into Subpadi in 2014, building on the research conducted in 2013. Subpadi originated as an e-commerce platform, leveraging WordPress. We successfully engaged various students and stakeholders, forming a team that collaborated with different stakeholders on the platform.

2015

In 2015, we initiated the involvement of stakeholders in Nigeria, specifically individuals with computer science and engineering skills, along with others in business-related fields. This led to the formation of a leading entity called Future Transformed Lead. The primary goals of this lead are to unite individuals with similar visions and to restructure the system for collective advancement.

2016

In 2016, we launched ScreenHub, a comprehensive 360 hub that served as a platform for networking ideas through digital products and marketing. This facilitated the exchange of ideas, understanding user behaviors, and customer reactions, ultimately bringing VR visual concepts to life. Additionally, we introduced Scientists Kingdom in 2016, specifically Intelligent Scientist (I N Intelligent Scientist). This initiative involved various University such as UI, OOU, Unilag, Uniabuja, and YabaTech, fostering collaboration and innovation in the field of science and intelligence.

2017

In 2017, we welcomed FUNAAB on board, introducing a concept that was idealized and visualized. We brought to life Screenmode.Com.my and ScreensTV, with ScreensTV serving as a WhatsApp community to connect with people. Through ScreensTV, we successfully onboarded numerous individuals from various schools, engaging them in discussions about entertainment, news, and innovative technological ideas. Our efforts extended to collaborating with stakeholders such as Alake of Egba Land, Governor Ibikunle Amosun, and Oba Abdulrazaq Adeungba. Furthermore, we launched a financial platform named AssetsHub, providing opportunities for individuals to invest in foreign currencies, purchase shares, and participate in franchises.

2018

In 2018, we began assembling a group of individuals to collaborate on entry point ideas. We actively sought out and engaged people with shared interests to work together towards common goals. During this period, we completed a full rebranding, adopting the name RIF Africa, and commenced industrial exchanges as part of our evolving endeavors.

2019

In 2019, we established a partnership with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture at Eweje, focusing on entrepreneurship skills training aimed at infusing innovation into agriculture. The training attracted participants from various states, allowing us to broaden our reach and enhance Subpadi through the knowledge gained during the program.

2020

We relaunched the Subpadi website, making significant updates. As part of our strategy, we closed the AssetsHub software. Our outreach efforts included both online and physical programs, establishing entry points for training sessions on digital skills and web design, empowering individuals in these areas.

2021

In 2021, we introduced the MarketingHub website, providing a platform for marketing initiatives. Additionally, we launched the Subpadi app on the Play Store, expanding its accessibility. Simultaneously, we initiated work on a new project (RIF Logistics).

2022

In 2022, we made a significant move by relocating our physical office from Lagos to Abeokuta. Simultaneously, we launched RIF Logistics and initiated the development of our new product, BigiSub. This strategic move aimed to not only expand our market presence but also better accommodate the needs of our customers.

2023

In 2023, we successfully launched BigiSub on both the Play Store and App Store, making it accessible to a broader audience. Our efforts also involved extensive research to establish connections with local stakeholders and explore international opportunities for both digital and physical goods. Additionally, we prioritized expanding our team, increasing the number of staff to enhance our capabilities and services.
