Veritasi Homes and Properties Limited is set to hold the premier edition of its Master Class and Mentoring program for start-ups.
The program which is aimed at tackling problems in Nigeria’s entrepreneurship ecosystem will equip start-ups with the needed skills and the practical guide to succeed in any business ventures.
“We are excited to kick-start the mentoring program. I see a lot of people with great skills around me making little or nothing,” Adetola Nola, founder, Veritasi Homes and Properties Limited said in a statement.
“We aim to make businesses work in Nigeria by creating interactive training sessions and teaching business owners the right measures to grow. We want to help more businesses survive,” he said.
He noted that the program is unique in the sense that there will be follow up and support after the event to ensure that the businesses succeed.
Adetola who is now a successful entrepreneur will share his entrepreneurship story- the failures and lessons learned with participants, the statement states.
The young entrepreneur notes that participants will be mentored on the right way of doing business in Nigeria’s entrepreneurship ecosystem.
“I want to teach people how to monetize their skills. We also want to help start-ups make more money, thereby tackling issues of unemployment and poverty in the country,” he said.
He stated that the program has designed meetings and connections between businesses, speakers and fundraisers. “The discussions, relationships, and synergy will continue after the actual event and that is where the magic is,” Adetola said.
