What is SME.NG?

SME.NG is an impact investment platform that invests in Nigerian SMEs to realize environmental, social and financial returns. Within SME.NG, the team you will have the pleasure to meet have established the 1st impact fund for women at the bottom of the pyramid in Nigeria called “The Ebi Fund”. In addition to the fund, the team aims to establish the very 1st all-women accelerator, SheWorksHere that facilitates access to financing and markets. The aim of the fund and accelerator is to aid women entrepreneurs to accelerate their business growth through funding and to enhance women’s ability to compete in the formal economy. 

The event is a networking event between the Partners of SME.NG and Venture capitalist firms, Angel investors, foundations, Africans in the Diaspora and influencers from around the world including the U.S., Nigeria, UK, China, Silicon Valley, India, and Canada.

Therefore, this will be an outstanding opportunity to join in on this mission and meet first hand, the decision-makers pushing such a Nobel initiative.
