The Flourish Africa Grant for Female Entrepreneurs is a One Billion Naira Fund created to support and promote African female-owned businesses over 5 years through training, mentoring, and funding.
The programme seeks to empower the entrepreneurial activities of at least 2,500 female business owners through funding and structured training over five years. Through the programme, a minimum of 500 female entrepreneurs would be trained in business and life skills each year, after which the top 100 achievers from the pool would be eligible for grants of up to 2 million naira each from a 200 million naira annual fund.
The Flourish Africa training curriculum has been designed to educate and prepare female entrepreneurs for their business journey and give them wings to fly. It also gives female entrepreneurs an enabling platform for practical skill development, mentoring, business capital, and access to the marketplace.
