The High Flyers program supports 1,000 young entrepreneurs between 18-35 years with an existing agribusiness in Nebbi district and Lango sub-region in Uganda to scale up sustainable businesses and drive waged job creation in local communities.
The program builds on scaling and further enhancing validated approaches in the provision of growth-oriented business development support to young entrepreneurs in Uganda. It also leverages partnerships with financial entities and mentorships with established agripreneurs to increase entrepreneurs’ knowledge and skills in commercial agriculture and boost their potential to access longer-term youth entrepreneurship loan products and expand to new markets.
Young entrepreneurs (18 – 35 years) with an agri-business in Lira district are invited to apply!
