Tom-Chris Emewulu, Founder and President of SFAN provides insight into what led to the creation of the event.
“When I was a student entrepreneur, a certain academic figure told me that it was a terrible idea and I might not graduate. But I graduated with a First Class honour. Of course, it was a challenging process because I had to learn a lot. Hence, I created Student Entrepreneurship Week to help co-dreamers and innovators find direction and build their careers.”

For the fourth edition of the event, SFAN has partnered with Loveworld Next and Loveworld Business Network. The main focus theme of this year’s event is “The Next Frontier of Innovation and Leadership.”
