In a statement released on Monday, the conference announced a focus on empowering Christian youths through a multifaceted approach that integrates faith, business, and technological innovation.
The convener of IBCC, Olatayo Ajiboye, highlighted the upcoming event’s dedication to impacting Christian youths positively. This year’s conference aims to offer various avenues for this impact, including scholarships and the introduction of a dedicated startup fund tailored to support promising business ideas.
Regarding the startup fund, Ajiboye stated, “IBCC is introducing a startup fund designed to finance exceptional business ideas.
