SheVentures has signed a partnership deal with the Women Enterprise Alliance (WENA) to support the growth and sustainability of women-led businesses in the North Central region of Nigeria.
The official signing ceremony, which took place at the Women Enterprise Alliance head office, Abuja, marks the beginning of a collaboration designed to empower over 150 women-led small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across local, state and regional levels, through access to finance, market opportunities, capacity building and enterprise development.
As part of the initiative, the top three SMEs emerging from the regional programmes will receive business grants of up to N5 million from selected investors and partners.
Speaking during the ceremony, Nnenna Jacob-Ogogo, the group head of SheVentures noted: “This partnership reflects our continued commitment to unlocking the potential of women entrepreneurs across Nigeria. At SheVentures, we believe empowering women economically is one of the fastest ways to drive inclusive growth and community development. Together with WENA, we will ensure that women in the North Central region have the funds, the tools, skills and exposure needed to thrive.”
On her part, Florence Onwumere, head of organisation and programmes at WENA, stated: “We are excited to work with SheVentures, a brand that aligns with our mission of uplifting women entrepreneurs.”
With this collaboration, we are expanding access to critical resources and shaping the next generation of business leaders in underserved regions of Nigeria.”
The SheVentures and WENA partnership reinforces both organisations’ shared vision to drive inclusive growth. It signals a promising new chapter for female-led businesses in Nigeria.
