15 Years of Impact. Thousands of Stories. One Bigger Vision.<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Fifteen years ago, the goal was simple: give African entrepreneurs the opportunity to build.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Since then, thousands of entrepreneurs have turned that opportunity into businesses, jobs, products, and solutions for their communities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Last week, The Tony Elumelu Foundation launched its 15 Year Impact Report<\/strong> on the sidelines of the 81st United Nations General Assembly (UNGA81) in New York<\/strong>, bringing together Foundation leadership, partners, and members of the wider entrepreneurship ecosystem to reflect on 15 years of African entrepreneurship and impact.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

And, of course, our Alumni were part of the story. Behind every number in an impact report is a person who started somewhere, a business that began with an idea, and a Founder who decided to try.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

That is 15 years of impact. And we are still building.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t
