Sunday Ehigiator

In a strategic move to redefine its role in Africa’s healthcare and financial sectors, NucleusIS Africa has officially transitioned to RIGO Incorporated, marking a new chapter in its evolution from a health-tech startup into a full-scale ecosystem builder for the continent’s healthcare economy.

The rebranding was announced at an exclusive launch event held recently in Victoria Island, Lagos, attended by key stakeholders across healthcare, finance, government, and media.

The event showcased RIGO’s refreshed identity and introduced its dual-business structure, reaffirming its commitment to transforming healthcare delivery and financing in Africa.

“We’ve built more than just a company, we’ve built an ecosystem,” said Kayode Odeyinde, Founder and CEO of RIGO Incorporated. “RIGO reflects the scale and seriousness of the work we are doing, and the future we are building.

“As part of its expanded mandate, RIGO Incorporated now operates two core divisions; RIGO Microfinance Bank, a digital financial platform offering healthcare and essential service businesses access to seamless transactions and collateral-free loans, delivered in under 48 hours; and RIGO Tech, a comprehensive technology platform enabling Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) and healthcare providers to digitize, streamline, and automate operations for improved service delivery.

“From inventory management to claims processing and financial access, healthcare operators in Africa face deeply rooted challenges. RIGO is the connective tissue making their systems interoperable, and the engine powering their growth,” Odeyinde explained.

In his keynote address, the Chairman of the Board at RIGO Inc., Femi Niyi, emphasised that the company’s transformation was inspired by a deeper mission to solve longstanding bottlenecks in the healthcare value chain.

“We’ve evolved from a health-tech startup into a full-spectrum finance and technology enabler.

“This new chapter is about more than growth; it is our commitment to building infrastructure that makes healthcare delivery faster, more efficient, and financially inclusive.

“Through RIGO Finance and our growing network, we’re removing barriers that have held healthcare businesses back for decades. We’re not just enabling access, we’re redefining what’s possible for healthcare in Africa.”
