Celebrated customer-friendly
telecommunications company, 9mobile is targeting to empower Small and Medium
scale Enterprises (SMEs) in and around Lagos at its quarterly business networking and empowerment platform,
Market Access, reports ITRealms.
The forum, ITRealms
gathered is in furtherance of 9mobile commitment to the growth of small
businesses in the country and the latest has been scheduled for Thursday, October 19, this year.
Also, ITRealms
gathered that Market Access organised in partnership with the Enterprise
Development Centre of the Pan Atlantic University, and serves as a platform for SME owners to interact with large
corporations with the objective of sharing knowledge and strategies that
could enable the growth of start-ups and small businesses.
The Lagos edition will hold at Zone Conference Centre, Plot
9, Gbagada Industrial Scheme, beside UPS, Gbagada Expressway, Lagos. The theme of
the Lagos Market Access forum is, ‘Access
to Sustainable Market for SMEs: Challenges & Opportunities.’
Speaking about the forum, the Director, Enterprise Market
Segment, 9mobile, Plato Syrimis, said 9mobile Market Access empowers potential
entrepreneurs by facilitating opportunities for them to network and share knowledge/ideas
as this is an important driver towards achieving their individual goals.
“SMEs are enablers of national economic development and one
of the ways that we can help them to fulfil that role is to empower them with
the essential knowledge and strategies they require to nurture their businesses.
9mobile is an innovative network and we are delighted to continuously be at the
forefront of empowering SMEs across Nigeria through the Market Access platform,” he said.
Syrimis added that Lagos, popularly referred to as the
‘Centre of Excellence’ is also Nigeria’s economic nerve centre.
Therefore, he said, hosting SMEs in the cosmopolitan city has
a much wider reach and impact.
“One of the major benefits of bringing entrepreneurs together
under one roof to interact and share ideas is to empower their burgeoning
businesses at no cost to them. This is another demonstration of how 9mobile delivers
qualitative service in keeping with its Naija spirit,” he said.
ITRealms recalls
that since 9mobile launched services into the Nigerian market nine years ago, it
has supported enterprises across various sectors through the development of innovative
solutions and platforms which include the SME Arena, MoreBusiness 2.0, Millionaire
Hunt, KwikCash, 9mobile Prize for Innovation and 9mobile Prize for Literature
amongst others.
