Yemisi Edun, the managing director of First City Monument Bank (FCMB), said the bank is empowering local businesses to drive entrepreneurial growth across Nigeria through its Business Empowerment Sustainability and Training (BEST) initiative.
“Investing in entrepreneurial talent is an investment in Nigeria’s future, strengthening the private sector’s capacity to drive national economic progress,” she said during the BEST masterclass program, which traversed the Southeast, South-South, and parts of Northern Nigeria.
The program empowers start-ups and existing entrepreneurs with essential skills and capabilities to scale and sustain their businesses for long-term success.
