On 31st May 2025, the Royal Iwere Foundation proudly launched the EstablishHER Entrepreneurship Fund, a dynamic six-month programme designed to accelerate the growth of 140 women-led businesses in Warri Kingdom and beyond.

EstablishHER Entrepreneurship Fund empowers female entrepreneurs and offers participants tailored business development support, practical skills training, internship opportunities, and access to funding, unlocking local and global possibilities.

Delivered through the EstablishHER Academy, Internship Placements, and the Intervention Fund, this 6-month programme provides intensive enterprise training, digital literacy, mentorship, and seed capital, equipping women to build thriving, resilient businesses capable of making generational impact.

Over the coming months, these entrepreneurs will embark on a journey of empowerment, gaining the tools and confidence to scale their ventures, create jobs, and contribute meaningfully to economic development in the region.

Together, we are building businesses, uplifting families, and cultivating legacies of leadership.
