Nigeria is home to over 23 million female entrepreneurs, one of the highest numbers in the world and women own 41 percent of businesses in the SME sector. Daily, these women rise above all odds to set sail to their dreams and achieve a better life for themselves and their families. However, in a field where stability is critical to thriving, most of these women do not have access to essential insurance plans that will empower them to keep chasing their dreams and keep them going no matter what.

With #Protecting22Dreams Tangerine is not only giving women the confidence and support they need to build successful businesses, but also the cover needed to thrive across all angles of their lives.

With this campaign, Tangerine is also driving the urgent conversation for making insurance accessible to everyone irrespective of his or her social or economic background. You can nominate any female entrepreneur you think deserves the #Protecting22Dreams bundle, the company said.
