“The Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women Initiative is supporting scholarships for underserved women to attend EDC Certificate in Entrepreneurial Management (CEM)”

Precious Okpala, the owner of Rock Solid Concept producer pure natural honey in Lagos, Nigeria, recently attended the five (5) months training in entrepreneurial Management at the Pan African University, Enterprise Development Centre as one of the scholars in a global entrepreneurship programme powered by Goldman Sachs.

She earned her Certificate in Entrepreneurial Management in December, 2009 and has been able to deploy all that she learnt during the programme to her business which has now experienced a drastic improvement. After the programme, Precious repackaged her product for better patronage; sales experienced a 100% increase and also created visibility for the product enabling penetration into big markets.
