Accelerator Program Boosts Nigerian Women’s Entrepreneurial Skills
A new accelerator program has been launched with the goal of empowering 350 Nigerian women, providing them with the tools, resources, and support to enhance their entrepreneurial skills and boost their economic independence.
The initiative aims to equip women with training in business management, financial literacy, and access to funding opportunities, thereby enabling them to scale their businesses and contribute to economic growth.
This program is part of broader efforts to address gender inequality in business and entrepreneurship in Nigeria, where women often face challenges in accessing capital, markets, and mentorship.
By focusing on capacity-building and creating networking opportunities, the accelerator seeks to foster innovation and leadership among Nigerian women in various sectors.
Participants in the accelerator program will benefit from mentorship by industry leaders, workshops on key business strategies, and potential investment opportunities to grow their ventures.
Additionally, the program is aligned with global and local efforts to empower women economically, especially in developing economies where women entrepreneurs are increasingly recognized as pivotal drivers of growth.
