In order to address the challenges posed by a high level of poverty and unemployment in the country, Trinitas Foundation is set to give out an investment fund of Twenty Million Naira (N20m) to ten startup ventures.
The charity foundation will empower selected young grassroots entrepreneurs across various fields including Technology, Agriculture, Small Scale Manufacturing, Entertainment & Media, Fashion, Beauty & Lifestyle and Food.
An annual startup pitch competition, the new initiative is known as ‘Trinitas Investment Programme’, which is a strategic approach to highlight one of the key missions of the foundation, which is to empower and foster opportunities and possibilities for emerging African ventures across the target six industries.
