Foundation for Skills Development (FSD) has concluded plans to equip the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) with information that will enable them grow their businesses. The organisation intends to achieve this by organising a seminar for women scheduled to hold at the MAN House, Ikeja, Lagos, on May 9.
