In a landmark achievement for Nigerian innovation, RBetach by Reposebay LLC has become the first Nigerian startup to be officially incubated by Qatar’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) through its Digital Incubation Center (DIC). The tech company has also earned a coveted spot in the Qatar Development Bank’s (QDB) Talent Community, signaling a major leap forward for African-led technology solutions in the Gulf region.
The historic dual recognition places RBetach at the forefront of cross-border innovation and highlights Qatar’s increasing commitment to supporting startups from emerging markets like Nigeria.
“Being accepted into these two forward-thinking institutions is both an honour and a strategic leap,” said Kelechi Abiri, Founder and CEO of Reposebay. “Being the first Nigerian company in both MCIT’s Digital Incubation Centre and the Qatar Development Bank’s Talent Community validates the quality of our solutions and the global relevance of African innovation.”
RBetach, a subsidiary of Reposebay Human Resource Ltd, develops customizable, AI-powered HR software that helps businesses streamline compliance, optimize workforce operations, and scale seamlessly across international markets. The company operates actively in Nigeria, Qatar, and the United States, with office locations at Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) Tower 1 and Al Nassr Tower B, Corniche, under the MCIT’s incubation program.
The MCIT Digital Incubation Center offers promising tech startups access to mentorship, funding, infrastructure, and partnerships with global accelerators. Meanwhile, the QDB Talent Community connects high-potential startups to a network of investors, corporate partners, and technical experts aimed at accelerating growth and market entry.
Adding to its recent milestones, RBetach was also selected as a vendor for Qatar’s national Digital Transformation for SMEs initiative, led by MCIT—further confirming the startup’s relevance and contribution to Qatar’s digital ecosystem.
RBetach’s achievement is not only a win for Nigerian entrepreneurship but also a promising indicator of broader African participation in the GCC’s growing digital economy. Industry stakeholders expect this recognition to open doors for other African startups seeking access to global markets.
