I do believe I had stated it very clearly here why people were made to register business names. This is the time to start looking out for other sources of funding. Strike deals. Get in partners (from within and outside). It is better to have 10% of something than 100% of nothing. Many of the world's billionaires are not single owners of their companies.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! To those who were selected and
To does who were not dis is not the end of the road. I was
Not select aswell. But it hurts, this is in human, when they
Knew dey have no enuff rooms to accommodate all why
Did they ask all to Go register their biz name.
I see no justice in this, some of us have to hustle to get
That money for the registration and now they send
( non-selection) this is nonsense!!!!!

Congrats to dose of us selected and all the thanks to God our Creator alone. To those not selected, just say 'may God bless ours for us' and He shall do sth bigger and better for u too very soon. Yes, very soon by His grace.

Now I have questions. Is it that those of us that got d email now are d ones in the final list of 1200 or is it that they selected more than that from which they will select d final 1200? because my email reads 'NOTIFICATION OF SELECTION FOR YouWiN INTERVIEW'. Can someone who is sure clarify this from any past winner pls? because I'm still a little bit sceptical o.

Like I said earlier, this is a YouWIN first. I think they have used the experiences of the 2 programs where many awardees are still struggling despite the cash injections, as well as the known fact of people having others write their proposals or fronting for others to come up with the idea where you come to defend your proposal, the way it is done on Dragons Den.

Therefore, it is very likely that many people will be dropped. But the 1,200 figure will be maintained when awards are announced.
Re: Youwin Business Competition 2013 by Ibrahym(m): 5:08pm On Jul 21, 2014
I received the email notification for the interview as well!
Congrats to all invited.
To everyone that has been through the whole Youwin! 3 process (successful or not) to date, good luck going forward in your business ventures (proposed or existing) as well as in raising alternative and/or additional funds!
May Allah make it easy for us all, Amin

Good question, which I will like answered as well.
However, whichever way, I''l be preparing for the interview to discuss/defend my business plan.

You do have a valid point!
Re: Youwin Business Competition 2013 by medoty: 7:45pm On Jul 21, 2014
Congratulations to all of us because there's no looser here. But this one is a little deviation from YouWiN 1 & 2 where by now we will congratulated and asked to come for validation exercise and we will be called Provisional Awardees/winners. But I believe the almighty Allah that see us through the first and second stages will also see us through this interview. Once again congratulations to all us for coming this far.

Thanks.

My younger brother wasn't selected. But it's ok. At least let other families too be represented. Thank God your sister was selected so you've got your family represented. I wish you the best in your future endeavours. And I pray Youwin does something for everyone of the 6000 second stage candidates.

Big Appreciation goes to all those who were willing to help by sharing Ideas with others on nairaland and responding to questions concerning youwin3. I was selected and wish to congratulate every other person. God bless u all.
Re: Youwin Business Competition 2013 by juri: 11:52pm On Jul 21, 2014
Pls, I would like to know for sure the position of things. Are we already successful but going on final selection via this interview to pick the best to be at the Villa, or is this interview another step before final list of winners is to be made. Thank you.

Wishful thinking. You are already seeing a change in format which would weed off a lot of people and you are talking of doing something for the 6000 candidates. I know at least 2 persons that did not submit the stage 2 business plans. How does YouWIN now give such people anything?
Re: Youwin Business Competition 2013 by edundayo(m): 12:28pm On Jul 22, 2014
It's the Lord's doing, to him be all the glory. I also got invited.

I congratulate those who didn't make it because you ain't lossers
but winners too. Like one of the anchors said at the training, that they've
monitored many who didn't get the grant from the 1st and 2nd edition but
are now doing pretty fine whereas they are now looking for some of their
mates who got the grant and squandered it, so that they can ask them
to come and pay back the money.

Congrats to everyone who made it through and all the best on the interview.
May God see us through to the BIG BUCKS!

medoty: That is exactly what I did. I got my name reserved for 60 days, if I'm successful I can complete my registration within two days. If not (God forbid) they go with my N500. Just waiting.
Bro, have you started the actual registration process? How long will it take to get the certificate after the registration?

But make sure you have availability search ready if not search will take time.
You have no time to waste if you have been called for the interview. All the best
Re: Youwin Business Competition 2013 by Omaobe: 3:32pm On Jul 22, 2014
I was actually doing the biz registration stuff at the CAC office in Ibadan yesterday when I got the Interview invite mail. I paid N750 in total: N500 for name search availability and N250 for biz name registration as a YouWiN applicant. I was asked to pay the N10,000 registration fee to complete the process immediately but I was not financially muscular. It seems nah express road registration dey take for YouWiN applicant in Ibadan o! I am trying to run around to pay and complete it ASAP.
