Advisory
Turn state-level insight into better decisions.
pSPI provides the evidence. Our advisory team helps you determine what to do with it.
We work with governments, investors, businesses and development organisations to interpret state-level data, assess opportunities and risks, and turn the findings into practical recommendations.
Investor Site Selection
Choose the right location with greater confidence
Deciding where to invest requires more than comparing headline economic figures. We assess potential locations against the factors that matter to your investment, including access to talent, infrastructure, logistics, operating conditions, fiscal considerations and relevant state-level risks. The result is a clear comparison of your options and an evidence-based recommendation to support your investment decision.

State Repositioning
Understand where your state can compete more effectively
We help state governments understand their current performance, identify the areas with the greatest potential for improvement and determine where focused action can make a measurable difference. Using pSPI data alongside deeper analysis and stakeholder insight, we develop practical priorities for strengthening performance, improving the investment environment and communicating the state's value proposition more effectively.

Market Entry & Expansion
Know the market before you enter it
Nigeria's states differ significantly in market size, infrastructure, operating environment, consumer characteristics and access to distribution. We help organisations assess these differences and identify the states that offer the strongest fit for their products, services and growth objectives. Our analysis can include market demand, location assessment, distribution considerations, potential partners and state-specific operating conditions.

Custom Research
Research designed around the question you need answered
Not every decision can be answered by an existing dataset. We design quantitative and qualitative research around specific policy, market and development questions, drawing on pSPI's state-level research experience and established data collection approach. Depending on the assignment, this may include citizen surveys, business surveys, stakeholder interviews, comparative state analysis and policy diagnostics.
For: GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS · DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS · FOUNDATIONS · THINK TANKS · PRIVATE-SECTOR ORGANISATIONS
