Sponsorship & Partnership

Put your brand in front of Nigeria's most ambitious builders.

Joche Gauntlet is a recurring, merit-based skills competition. Each cycle, Nigerian builders compete for a sponsor-funded Champion Award on a public leaderboard. Sponsoring the Award puts your brand directly in front of that audience, at every touchpoint from entry to the winner announcement.

Become a sponsor

Founding sponsor

Get in at the ground floor.

Joche Gauntlet is newly launched. The leaderboard, scoring, and winner flow are live and the first cycles are running now. Sponsor an early cycle and your brand is the first these builders see, at a founding-partner rate.

Why sponsor

Visibility that runs the whole cycle.

Sustained brand placement

Your logo appears on the site-wide header, the hero, the live leaderboard, the winner announcement, the recap email, and social captions - not a one-off placement.

A consent-based talent shortlist

Sponsor a themed cycle (Cybersecurity, Data Analysis, Project Management) and receive a shortlist of the top performers in that skill - only the builders who explicitly opted in to be contacted. Never a scraped list.

Early access to standout builders

See the strongest work from your cycle and connect with those builders directly for mentorship, hiring, or partnership - with their consent.

An engaged, skilled audience

Entrants are verified, competing builders across real disciplines, not passive ad viewers.

Merit-based brand alignment

The Champion Award is earned, not raffled. Sponsoring it associates your brand with skill and transparent, published scoring.

Measured reach

Real impression and click numbers per placement, so you can see what your sponsorship actually delivered before you renew.
