Hello,

Happy new year.

Earlier in the year 2020, The Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF) announced the postponement of the 6th edition of its Entrepreneurship Programme and the TEF Forum as a result of the disruptions caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic.

To this end the 6th and 7th edition of the Tony Elumelu Foundation Entrepreneurship Programme will hold jointly in 2021. As such entrepreneurs who applied for the 2020 TEF Entrepreneurship Programme and have been advised to proceed to the next stage, are kindly requested to review and reconfirm their current submissions via www.tefconnect.com

The portal will open for access and review of previous submissions on February 1st 2021 and reconfirmation must occur by March 31st 2021. It is mandatory for all 2020 applicants to review and reconfirm their submissions.

Please continue to focus on your safety and wellbeing as we navigate the new normal.
