Happy Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise “MSME” Day!!! 

In celebration of this day, devoted to recognizing the resilience of MSMEs across the world, we took to the streets and asked a few businesses “What can you do with a grant of N500k?” Their responses were truly inspiring.

From aiding with logistics to restocking their stores, none of the micro, small and medium sized businesses we chatted with stuttered. They knew exactly what they would do with this injection of funds.

This got us thinking…maybe we could power their next big move!!!

So what can a business truly do with N500k? We are about to find out as over the next few weeks, we will be offering some of the most hardworking small businesses in Nigeria an opportunity to secure a grant of N500,000, no strings attached.

Here’s how you can get in on the action:

Step 1: Download the OurPass App and Create an Account.


To kickstart your journey towards the OurPass Business Grant, head over to our website and download the OurPass App. Once you've installed the app, create an account using the reference code: BIZPITCH and complete your KYC. This code will ensure you're properly registered and eligible for consideration.


Step 2: Upload a Video Pitch


Lights, camera, action! Now it's your time to shine. Upload a 60sec video on your preferred platform, be it Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook, stating how winning this grant will help you grow or scale your business. Be passionate, be creative, and let your story resonate with our community.
