The involvement of technology entrepreneurship has triggered an increased implementation of diverse innovations in the military establishment. In the Nigerian military, it is an individual responsibility for the serving personnel to develop both professional and personally. Career planning by military institution in Nigeria is streamlined according to rules and regulations as enshrined in the condition of service within which serving personnel are expected to consolidate their career. The institutional commitment is only structured to build expertise along military lines, hence, the need for serving personnel to engage in entrepreneurship activities in order to attain self-development. The opportunities for self-development are limited in Nigeria military when compared with their counterparts in developed countries given to the nature and condition of work in Nigeria that does not allow serving personnel to pursue personal development. Practice of entrepreneurship within the sphere of military establishment in Nigeria has witnessed inherent challenges limiting involvement of serving military personnel in entrepreneurship. This study therefore attempts to explore challenges and opportunities presented by technology innovation for sustainable military entrepreneurship in Nigeria while drawing the nexus between technology innovation and sustainable military entrepreneurship. The study is anchored on the opportunity-based theory by Peter Drucker. The study concludes that full potentials of technology innovation have the capability for sustainable military entrepreneurship in Nigeria.
