ENTREPRENEURSHIP GRANT

Empowering Nigerian Changemakers

₦5 Million in Grants to Power Your Vision
At the Regis Ohia Foundation, we believe that great ideas should never be held back by a lack of resources. Our Entrepreneurship Grant is designed to fuel the dreams of bold Nigerian entrepreneurs in Agribusiness, Healthcare, Education, and Recycling — those who are not only building businesses, but creating solutions that make a lasting difference.
This year, we’re offering a total of ₦5,000,000 in funding to three outstanding entrepreneurs:
  • 1st Place: ₦2,500,000
  • 2nd Place: ₦1,500,000
  • 3rd Place: ₦1,000,000

But this grant is more than just money — it’s a platform to grow. Selected applicants will join our 4-week virtual Accelerator Program in September 2025, gain mentorship from seasoned business leaders, network with fellow entrepreneurs, and present their ideas at a live pitch event in Lekki, Lagos. Winners will also enjoy media spotlight opportunities to help their ventures gain visibility.
