- 21. Akeem Brown - Station Park
On May 28th, I had the opportunity to share my experience developing Station Park and other projects at Beljan from 2019 to 2023. It was a live presentation with a Q&A afterward, and I’ve done my best to clean up the audio in post-production.
I’m excited to host more city builders on the platform soon.

In this episode of In the Hopper, I sit down with my co-founder, Ndidi Obinwanne, to review the first 10 months of our startup journey and dive deep into the future of real estate development. From the initial idea to launching our BETA, we discuss the challenges, breakthroughs, and lessons learned while building an AI-driven solution for developers.
Ndidi brings a powerhouse background in software engineering, data science, and machine learning, with experience spanning full-stack development, SaaS consulting, and technical process improvement. After moving from Lagos to Edmonton in 2021, she saw firsthand the housing challenges that newcomers and developers face—fueling her passion for building Ballpark Development.
Ballpark Development is an AI-powered tool designed to help developers find better deals, streamline municipal approvals, and automate feasibility analysis in seconds. If you’re in real estate and tired of the old, inefficient ways of finding projects, this is the episode for you!
