<\/div>

The Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF) is set to unveil its new cohort of young African entrepreneurs on Sunday, March 22, 2026, following a particularly competitive selection process across the continent.<\/p>\n

This announcement comes after a high-level exchange session with African media, led by the Foundation’s Managing Director, Somachi Chris-Asoluka, who presented the program’s key directions and its growing impact on the African entrepreneurial ecosystem.<\/p>\n

A rigorous selection from over 265,000 applications<\/p>\n

For the 2026 edition, approximately 3,200 entrepreneurs were selected from over 265,000 applications received across Africa. This number illustrates both the entrepreneurial dynamism of the continent and the ongoing need for funding and support for small and medium-sized enterprises.<\/p>\n

“Africa is full of ideas and innovation, but it is essential to strengthen support systems to enable these businesses to thrive,” emphasized Somachi Chris-Asoluka.<\/p>\n

A structuring program for African entrepreneurship<\/p>\n

Launched in 2015 by African entrepreneur Tony O. Elumelu, the TEF Entrepreneurship program offers laureates:<\/p>\n

– A non-repayable funding of $5,000
\n– Business management training
\n– Mentoring
\n– Access to a pan-African network of entrepreneurs and investors<\/p>\n

Over the years, the Foundation has trained millions of youth, funded tens of thousands of businesses, and contributed to job creation in key sectors such as agriculture, technology, health, education, and renewable energy.<\/p>\n

An impact beyond funding<\/p>\n

Beyond financial support, TEF focuses on long-term capacity building and creating an environment conducive to innovation. The Foundation works closely with governments, development institutions, and private sector actors to expand the reach and effectiveness of its actions.<\/p>\n

It also explores opportunities to strengthen its presence in underserved markets to ensure broader inclusion at the continental level.<\/p>\n

The key role of the media in promoting success stories<\/p>\n

During this meeting, the Managing Director emphasized the importance of the media in promoting African entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

“The media are essential partners. By telling authentic stories of innovation and resilience, they inspire other youth and attract more investments to our local ecosystems,” she said.<\/p>\n

An eagerly awaited event to celebrate African innovation<\/p>\n

The announcement ceremony for the 2026 laureates, scheduled for this Sunday, will be broadcast live and is expected to generate strong interest across the continent.<\/p>\n

As anticipation builds around this new cohort, the Tony Elumelu Foundation reaffirms its commitment to empowering young African entrepreneurs, convinced that the continent’s wealth lies in the potential and ingenuity of its youth.<\/p>\n
