The National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP) has secured a major financial boost for participants of the Adwumawura Programme, following a strategic engagement with the Venture Capital Trust Fund (VCTF).
At a meeting held on February 9, 2026, the Chief Executive Officer of NEIP, Eric Adjei Esq., alongside the Deputy CEO Joan Selasie Ahiawordor, Esq., and members of the management team, met with officials of the VCTF to deepen collaboration aimed at expanding access to finance for high-impact businesses emerging from the Adwumawura initiative.
As part of the partnership, the Venture Capital Trust Fund is establishing a dedicated Adwumawura Fund to support promising enterprises nurtured under the programme, a move expected to strengthen financing opportunities for young entrepreneurs.
The Chief Executive Officer of NEIP welcomed the development, commending the VCTF for its “openness, commitment, and continued partnership,” particularly towards the establishment of the Adwumawura Fund.
The engagement marks another milestone in NEIP’s broader effort to empower entrepreneurs, strengthen small and growing businesses, and promote sustainable livelihoods across the country through the Adwumawura Programme.
The collaboration also aligns with President John Dramani Mahama’s RESET Agenda, which seeks to transform Ghana’s economy and expand decent job opportunities for the youth.
