The Launch of the maiden edition of Ghana's 25 under 25 Magazine & Awards comes off on Saturday, 19th March 2022 followed by the Award Ceremony on the same day.
The event powered by Africa Dreams Factory is aimed at projecting and directing young entrepreneurs to reach their entrepreneurial goals with ease and more exposure according to the Executive Director of the project, Amrado Broni Peter.
Ghana's 25 under 25 unlike other award schemes is set to recognise, honour as well as document the achievements of young Ghanaians 25 years and below.
We believe that this will go a long way to help the participants, especially the entrepreneurs to get access to funds or stipends, provide them with one-on-one mentorship and allow attract them to investors.
Participants will have their stories documented in the upcoming magazine which will be publicly published.
By documenting the stories of excelling young people in the areas they find themselves in, we believe that will help them tell their stories to a greater audience and also inspire others while also exposing them to greater opportunities.
