Young entrepreneurs have identified access to finance as a key challenge through a pro-poor growth and promotion of employment programme tagged SEDIN, which aims at improving the employment and income situation of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Nigeria.
The Coordinator of SEDIN, Babafemi Oyediran, during a webinar training, said it provided an opportunity for the participants and similar programmes to network, share ideas and take-away lessons that would help to drive and sustain economic development for the benefit of all Nigerians.
