Akinlaja stated, “The show was designed as a deliberate attempt to provoke the spirit of entrepreneurship among young Nigerians, not just contestants but aspiring entrepreneurs watching from home.”
Akinlaja noted that the top 20 contestants lived together in the Titan House for 10 weeks, executing business tasks and competing before weekly evictions. He commended the judges, Kyari Bukar, Chris Parkes, Tonye Cole, and Lilian Olubi, for their mentorship and contribution to shaping the contestants.
The title sponsor, Betano, and platinum sponsor, First City Monument Bank, supported the 10th season alongside other partners, including SIFAX Group, Arik Air, Lifemate Furniture, Nikky Taurus, and NITDA.
