Social Good Nigeria hereby open the call for entries for its Post Popup Incubator Contest.

With the successful activation of Popup incubators in six cities across Nigeria with support from the Swedish Embassy in Nigeria in a space of seven months, a round off contest to test assimilation and promote stellar qualities of the program has been put together. The contest aims to “tell the stories” of impressive and potentially profitable ideas and efforts emanating from Nigeria and to give a platform for exposure to such. The competition will select an outstanding business idea from the Popup Incubators and give that idea further exposure by way of the prize, which would be a short, sponsored exclusion to Sweden to observe Swedish businesses and hubs, and possible interchange of ideas to help groom and refine the winning idea. Amongst other things, the winner will get the opportunity to develop networks within the Swedish business community.

In general, it is expected that the project and contest would enable participants have an understanding of Swedish Values in business/entrepreneurship, women’s right, resources and participation. Participants also have an opportunity to develope capabilities and strengths in business ideation, planning, financial literacy, money management and communications skills.

The winning idea will be determined based on its uniqueness and potential contribution to efficient and cost saving socio-economic development in Nigeria. IDEA is used here to represent a product or a service as proposed. Instructions, eligibility details and Resources can be found on the Contest Page (www.socialgood.ng/contest).
