First Bank of Nigeria is partnering ELOY Foundation to offer support to female entrepreneurs through its women focused product, FirstGem as well as its SMEConnect Initiative.

The bank, in a statement yesterday said, the partnership with ELOY Foundation was in furtherance of the need to empower female business owners across the country.

The partnership, which will be under the ELOY Foundation Business Shower, is designed to help support female entrepreneurs on their journey to building sustainable businesses.

According to the bank, the partnership focuses on key sectors of the economy and designed to have female entrepreneurs exposed to essential business skills like training, networking and the ELOY Foundation Business Toolkit, a compilation of business survival skills nuggets.

The business shower will avail businesses a platform to pitch their ideas to win seed grants and join the ELOY Foundation Sustainable Empowerment Programme 2022. Participants will also be able to access the FirstGem single digit loan, where eligible

Founder of the ELOY Awards Foundation, Tewa Onasanya, speaking on the partnership said “it is not just enough to talk about empowering business owners, it is very important to sustain empowerment by providing guidance towards their business progress and giving them access to different resources to help them continue to thrive.
