FATE Foundation Strengthened the Nigerian Economy

FATE Foundation further strengthened the Nigerian economy as it formally graduated over 265 freshly empowered entrepreneurs at its 8th Annual Celebration and Entrepreneurial Awards on December 4th, 2008, 228 persons out of the total 265 FATE-trained entrepreneurs have undergone the Aspiring Entrepreneur Programme of the Foundation, during which they received world-class and hands-on entrepreneurial training through formal classes, one-on-one mentoring and networking opportunities. The budding entrepreneurs who have business interest in diverse industry sectors each produced a mandatory marketable business plan to give their businesses the much needed focus and direction. While 37 entrepreneurs graduated from the Emerging Entrepreneurs Programme, this category of entrepreneurs are trained towards redirecting their businesses into creating better operation systems and business expansion.
