Choplife, the entertainment and tech firm founded by Nigerian artist Oluwatosin ‘Mr Eazi’ Ajibade, has set up operations in the Itana Digital Special Economic Zone. The move lets Choplife manage its music, gaming, events, and tech IP under one regional hub.
Easing Cross-Border Operations
Instead of using offshore centers in London or Delaware, Choplife chose Itana to keep its core operations in Africa while reaching global markets. The zone offers fast setup, simple compliance, and multi-currency banking support.
"For us, coming to Itana was the logical step a centralised, sovereign, digital-first operational hub directly on the continent."
— Mr Eazi, Founder of Choplife
Main highlights of the move:
- Unified Management: Reduces regulatory and financial friction when operating across African markets.
- Tech Talent: Choplife already employs over 21 local engineers in Nigeria and plans to build a dedicated campus.
- Easy Setup: Offers fast digital incorporation with 100% foreign ownership rights.
Creative Infrastructure Expansion
In addition to digital products, Mr Eazi stressed the need for better physical infrastructure in Africa, such as mid-sized music venues (250–1,000 capacity) and professional sound stages to help artists tour locally and build sustainable careers.
