The Biodun and Ibikunle Foundation Grant acknowledges the positive effects that prosperous companies have on the economy and society, such as the eradication of poverty, the creation of jobs, and the enhancement of mental and physical health.
Worldwide, entrepreneurship is acknowledged as a major factor in the creation of jobs, economic growth, and capacity. The foundation’s mission extends beyond encouraging entrepreneurship to include the growth of long-term companies that make major contributions to GDP and national development.
Nigeria has a lot of gifted entrepreneurs, but few of their ventures survive for several generations, which emphasises the necessity of an entrepreneurial revolution to solve the country’s problems with the economy and employment. In order to promote the expansion of micro and small companies, the Biodun and Ibikunle Foundation Grant provides asset grants, entrepreneurship training, and consulting services.
Through its SEEDINVEST Acceleration Program, the foundation hopes to lead an entrepreneurial revolution in Nigeria and throughout Africa. For those who are interested, this page will provide an overview of the program’s requirements and application process.
