We are thrilled to announce the Call for Applications for the 7th edition of the Ugwumba Enterprise Challenge, our annual pitching and grant competition promoting innovation, job creation and economic development in Nigeria.
It is remarkable to point out that through the Ugwumba Enterprise Challenge, launched in 2018, we have created jobs for over 20,000 Nigerian youths through the support we have given to over 5,000 young and women entrepreneurs across the country.
This year, we look forward to empowering another set of 2,000 young entrepreneurs with business development skills, technical support, small grants and business mentorship.
Therefore, we at this moment invite youths from across the 36 States of Nigeria plus the FCT who are growing businesses in any sector of the economy to apply for the 2024 Ugwumba Enterprise Challenge and stand the chances of winning any of our star prizes, as follows:
