Some FaQs I considered necessary.
What is YouWiN?
YouWiN stands for Youth Enterprise with Innovation
in Nigeria. It is an innovative business plan
competition aimed at job creation jobs by
encouraging and supporting aspiring
entrepreneurial youth in Nigeria to develop and
execute business ideas.
Who can apply?
Every Nigerian aged 18-45 years that wants to start
a business or expand their existing business.
What types of business can apply?
The competition is open to all types of businesses as
long it is viable and has a demonstrable capacity to
create jobs.
Must I be registered with CAC to apply?
For existing businesses, you must be registered with
CAC. For new business ideas, you do not have to be
registered with CAC. However, sponsors of new
businesses that win awards in this competition will
be required to register fully with CAC prior to
receiving any award funds.
My business is a partnership, how many
applications can I submit?
The number of application is limited to one per
person.
Can I change my business idea if I have already
submitted an application
No. It is advisable that you think through your
application before you submit.
Is there a limit to how many business ideas I
can submit?
You can only submit one business idea.
Is there an application fee for You Win?
Registration is free.
How do I know if I am selected?
You will be notified once you register. If you are
selected, you will also be notified of the next steps.
I submitted a good business idea and I was not
selected
The panel will decide the winners. However
applicants who submitted good proposals that did
not win awards may receive other support from the
project.
How much money can I apply for?
Award recipients will receive between 1,000,000.00
(One million Naira only), and N10,000,000.00 (ten
million Naira only), depending on their business
needs.
Do I have to pay back the money?
No.. You are to use the money to start and or grow
your business and employ Nigerian youth.
How will my business be funded?
You will be paid by installments based on pre-agreed
project targets and employment creation over a one
year period.
How long will this program last?
The program will run for three consecutive years.
Since this is an equity grant from the
government, does the government own a part
of my business?
No. The grant is government’s contribution to your
business. It remains your own fully.
How safe are my ideas?
Your ideas are safe. Everybody that has access to
applications has signed a non disclosure agreement.
It is also safe from potential internet hackers as the
website is secured with the best internet security.
I do not live in Nigeria, can I participate?
Yes. You can participate as long as you are a
Nigerian and the business is located in Nigeria.
I was asked to refine some sections of my
business plan and I have done so, when will my
award ceiling and disbursement schedule be
sent to me?
The Enterprise Development Center (EDC) will
evaluate your submissions and determine the award
ceiling for your business.
When will I receive my Tranche 1 funds? I have
opened an account and submitted my CAC
documents to the Secretariat.
The Secretariat prepares the disbursement schedule
for approval by the Federal Ministry of Finance in
Batches – as awardees become ready.
My Tranche 1 amount will not be enough to
purchase any machinery or rent an office, what
do I do?
The Tranche 1 funds are to set-up business activities
such as securing licenses (e. g NAFDAC, Ministry of
Education etc) where applicable. Tranche 2 is more
substantial and can be used for capital expenditure.
When will the Tranche 2 funds be paid?
Tranche 2 will be processed and paid after
recommendation for disbursement has been
confirmed by monitors.
I cannot meet the turnover and employ the
number of people expected in my disbursement
schedule, what do I do about this?
Monitors will review your business plan and agree
together with you, the minimum milestones that
should be achieved by your business based on your
business plan and award amount during the 1st
monitoring visit.
Who should I talk to about making some
modifications to my business plan?
Your monitor.
When will a monitor visit me?
As soon as an Awardee makes the request.
I am unable to continue my business in my
present location (Region/state), can I move to
another Region/state?
You need to contact the secretariat to discuss why
and where you are moving. This may or may not be
approved.
When will the next round application begin?
Date will be announced in the dailies and on the
website.
How can I contact the secretariat?
You can contact the secretariat from 9:00am to
4:00pm Monday to Friday.

mentors?
At least 1 hour a month (per mentee).

the same times?

How long is the mentoring program?
1 year
How often do they need to meet with the
mentees?
At least once every month (or as deemed necessary)
Can mentoring be done remotely/virtually
either by phone, Skype or email?

both mentors and mentees?
We have a hand book for mentors and consent forms

pool” into which awardees can tap, in running their
businesses
Partners

favour ume:

Oga English language may not be my first, but the question is self explanatory and it says - "Describe this[i][/i] equipment" which means it is just ONE equipment you are require to describe.

Moreover, the question asked before this gives you an idea of what they want which is "What is the minimum equipment cost that is necessary to commence trading or expand your business." meaning, just ONE equipment that means a lot to the commencement of your business.

@favour: you are wrong. Equipment here means that u shd mention a few of the equipment you will need. Not just a single one. They allotted all of the space in that field for that reason.

Nawa o.

Fomaxcool:

thanks so much, I didn't even notice that it was equipment not equipments.

Even at that I don't know how to answer it right because I have listed some of the materials need for the biz

please any hint

Pls is there any word as equipment(s). I think equipment serves as both singular and plural, just like sheep both in d plural form.
So in my opinion, it not only refering to a particular material but different ones necessary to start one's venture. Thanks

still there

I am still hopeful that the directive from YOUWIN Secretariat that all prospective winners should register their businesses is for our benefit. I am convinced that there is a special package for all of us. The directive is the first of it's kind.
I am very expectant ............So help us God!
