To equip and empower young Nigerian entrepreneurs in using IP rights for business development and financing strategy, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WPO Nigeria Office) organized an event at the UN House on Intellectual Property Skis Acquisition, Learning, and Youth Entrepreneurship (IP SALAYE) targeting the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Abuja.
The event is to present an opportunity for the National Youth Corps Members to exhibit their innovations to potential investors, mentors, NYSC officials and members of the entrepreneurial communities.
The Corp Members in a previous workshop were equipped to advance and provide solutions to SDGs issues in their local communities and how to protect their innovations.
IPSALAYE is an IP awareness programme for young entrepreneurs undergoing the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme in Nigeria, designed to: Help young entrepreneurs earn about the use of IP in fostering successful businesses.
Connect young entrepreneurs with experienced business and IP experts and celebrate success stories of young entrepreneurs that have leveraged IP for their business growth.
