Aspire Educational Foundation Empowers Cross River Youths to develop Entrepreneurial mindset

Calabar, Cross River State – 

The Aspire Educational Foundation recently hosted the second edition of its annual "Enhance" Seminar. This event aimed to inspire and equip young individuals in Cross River State to embrace entrepreneurship as a viable career path or as a ‘side hustle’.

The seminar attracted a diverse group of aspiring entrepreneurs, undergraduates and graduates from tertiary institutions, as well as interns. It featured insightful sessions led by sector experts, covering various elements of entrepreneurship, like business planning, financial management, marketing strategies, and innovative thinking.

The event kicked off with opening remarks by Mr. Kasi Usani, the Chairman and Founder of Aspire Educational Foundation. He welcomed attendees and emphasized the importance for young people to acquire knowledge and skills beyond their formal education, and to embrace opportunities for personal development and capacity building.

Mr. Kenneth Asim Ittah, the Executive Secretary of the Calabar Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture (CALCIMA), delivered the keynote address titled "Activating an Entrepreneurial Mindset." He urged participants to take calculated risks aimed at providing solutions to societal problems. Mr. Asim Ittah elaborated on the key elements of entrepreneurship and stressed that a positive entrepreneurial mindset is a key determinant of business success.

A key feature of the event involved participants working in groups to develop a given business proposal and then coming up to pitch their business plans to the audience and a panel of Assessors, after which the Assessors provided critical and positive feedback on each presentation.

The feedback focused on improving participants' pitching abilities and incorporating structure and organisation in the development and delivery of their proposals.

The event also afforded the young participants an opportunity to interact and network with the experienced professionals who were in attendance, thus fulfilling one of the Foundation’s aims and objectives for the event.

Apart from Mr Kenneth Asim Ittah, the keynote speaker, other experienced professionals and sector players in attendance at the event (who mostly served as the Assessors) included: Mr. Emmanuel Monn, a Development Consultant in Agri business & MSME Development; Mr. Benedict Usang, Coordinator of NGO’s and civil society organisations in Cross River State; Wilfred Usani(Esq.), Managing Partner of a law firm and Mr Eta Ndoma-Egba, General Manager of Emostrade Nigeria Ltd based in Calabar.

5 Real Ways to Actually Make Money Online

How many articles are there about making money online? Thousands?  Millions? Enough? Probably. But there’s a problem. Too many of them are just sales pitches to convince you to sign up for some seminar, webinar, training session or some other way to become an online millionaire.
They really give online money making a bad name. But it is possible to make money online. I mean, the people selling all of those millionaire pitches are making money, right?
There are legitimate ways to make money online. The problem is that the real ways to make money aren’t “get rich quick” schemes.
Most of them require a lot of work and sometimes a lot of dedication before seeing a return on your time.  But if you really want to make money online, work from home or turn an idea into a business, you can do it. You can even earn money with apps if you don’t want to venture all the way to the computer.
