At the rate Co-Creation Hub is going, we might need a special person to cover just them. Nigeria’s Co-Creation Hub has launched a new website, LagosInnovation.com, which is aimed at mapping hotspots representing representing clusters of emerging high growth and competitive businesses across Lagos State.

The purpose of the website is to assemble a detailed picture of the location of high growth and innovative businesses in Lagos with attention to the links and resources in that location that give rise to clusters. It’ll also provide information to government and policy makers to help them make the right decisions as regards to business and innovation. Mapping hotspots and clusters will also show emerging business trends in the long run.

The map currently has 75 businesses and relies on crowdsourcing to build hotspots. If you head to the website, you’ll notice there’s a cluster of technology startups along the Yaba axis ( B) ), there’s also a cluster of Public Relations, Brand Management and Advertising companies around the Maryland-GRA Ikeja axis. If you’re into the printing business, Shomolu is definitely the place to be for printers.

Here’s a video showing how to map a hotspot
