The Emmanuel Ivorgba Center, with support from Rotary Club for Global Action is pleased to announce, today, Saturday, May 21,2022, the four Finalists and Winners of the 5th Edition of the Young Business Leaders Awards. Now in its 5th year, the Young Business Leaders (YBL) Award supports young Nigerian entrepreneurs with an integrated package of support to help them start and grow sustainable businesses. Helping young people to start their own business can make a direct impact on unemployment - because not only does the young person get a job, but they are able to create jobs for others. These four finalists will receive mini capital of one hundred thousand naira (N100, 000) each, made possible by Rotary Club for Global Action, to support their businesses, including expert local support, specifically tailored to their needs.
