Thank you Tony Elumelu Foundation for this certificate of recognition as a JUDGE for the 2021 TEF Entrepreneurship Programme. Congratulations to me... It was an awesome experience being selected as a mentor and also as a judge for the final phase (video pitch) of the TEF 2021 Entrepreneurship Programme. I got the opportunity to review many business ideas from entrepreneurs across the African continent and I strongly believe that if we continue with the same spirit, momentum and couple with support from established organisations like TEF, Africa can become the business hub of the future because Africa has tremendous economic potential and offers rewarding opportunities including the abundance of labour. For those entrepreneurs that were successful, congratulations. For those that didn’t make it, I will still congratulate you because the TEF programme offers invaluable lessons and training that can help all applicants to start a new business or scale an existing business successfully if the lessons and knowledge acquired in the programme are followed and implemented. The knowledge from the programme can help you raise funds elsewhere and also achieve your business goals. You can still reapply. Don’t give up and don’t be discouraged, It took some people 4 consecutive applications before they finally won in 2021. The portal for the 2022 edition will open on the 1st January 2022 and I urge you to still apply except you are not qualified. If you have won, please make good use of the opportunity, if you did not win, apply again in 2022 and also take advantage of other available opportunities. I wish you the best in your entrepreneurial journey as we sail smoothly into 2022. @tonyelumelufoundation #TEF2021 #AfricanEntrepreneur #nigeria #africa #youngentrepreneur #utibebiz (at Lekki Phase 1, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CW8XmkaNPK_/?utm_medium=tumblr

The 2021 TEF Entrepreneurship Programme

Established in 2010, The Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF) is an African private-sector-led philanthropy in Africa championing entrepreneurship and entrepreneurs across the continent. The Foundation’s long-term investment in empowering African entrepreneurs is emblematic of Tony Elumelu’s philosophy of Africapitalism, which positions Africa’s private sector, and most importantly entrepreneurs, as the catalyst for the social and economic development of the continent. The Foundation’s flagship initiative, the TEF Entrepreneurship Programme, is a 10-year, $100 million commitment to identify, train mentor and fund 10,000 entrepreneurs, capable of changing the face of business across Africa.

The 7 pillars of TEF Entrepreneurship Programme

Start-up Enterprise Toolkit A 12-week programme to equip startups with basic skills required to launch and run their businesses at early growth stage. It covers several topics including starting and scaling a business, business development, marketing strategy, effective management, product design etc.

Online Mentoring Our model provides a credible technology-enabled platform for access to world-class mentors from across Africa and internationally. The mentors have faced similar challenges and are able to steer our startups on a successful path.

Online Resources A bespoke compendium of materials, case studies, videos, tasks, templates and interesting articles. This includes the 12-week series on the TOE Way, shared concurrently. It expounds the core business values of the Founder, with an aim to building the right character in the entrepreneurs.

Meetups Country and state-level meet ups to ignite the entrepreneurial fire and promote close interaction within the programme. These selections facilitate personal exchanges, formation of strong ties with one another and with local hubs and key government agencies.

TEF Entrepreneurship Forum A dedicated world-class annual Forum that brings together key persons in the African and global entrepreneurial eco-system with an aim to leverage our convening powers to promote African entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship; and to connect with local and regional decision makers.

Seed Capital Each entrepreneur receives a non-returnable seed capital of $5,000. The seed capital is calculated on the official Central Bank of Nigeria naira equivalent value at the date of selection for the programme. The aim is to support early growth, proof-of-concept and/or enhance their business operation. This seed capital is tied to clear milestones in a well-articulated and relevant business plan.

TEF Alumni Network The alumni network comprises all Tony Elumelu Entrepreneurs, following the successful completion of the 12-week training programme. The online and offline network promotes sector-based and geography-based communities, collaboration across Africa as well as a healthy competition.

This year’s intervention prioritises the economic recovery of small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) and young African entrepreneurs, following the Covid-19 disruption to economic activities.

Application Deadline: March 31, 2021
