Orange Corners Ghana has graduated over 100 youth-led businesses from the six-month acceleration program. The graduation ceremony marked the conclusion of its cohort 7 batch, during which Orange Corners provided comprehensive support to over 350 innovators admitted into the program, including expert training, coaching, and masterclasses, as well as access to facilities, networks, and finance to foster the growth of their enterprises.
Out of the 350 who were supported by the Orange Corners Centers from across the country (Accra, Kumasi, Ho, Takoradi, and Tamale), over 100 successfully completed and qualified to apply for the program’s allocated funding opportunity. They will now have access to a low-interest growth loan of up to EUR 50,000 from the Orange Corners Innovation Fund, managed by Fidelity Bank.
Mr. Richard Yeboah, the Regional Director of MDF Africa, conveyed his gratitude to the Kingdom of the Netherlands for granting the opportunity to support these entrepreneurs. He emphasized the inception of the Orange Corners program, which commenced in 2019 with 30 companies and has since provided support to over 600 companies.
Orange Corners Ghana, an initiative of the Netherlands executed by MDF West Africa in collaboration with esteemed partners, including Fidelity Bank, People’s Pension Trust, Friesland Campina, Vivo Energy, Meridian Port Services (MPS), De Heus Koudijs, and Cargill Ghana, has made significant strides since its inception in 2019.
