GrapeVine360 Solutions is excited to announce a strategic partnership with Covenant University and its highly respected innovation hub, the Hebron Start-Up Lab, as we prepare for the forthcoming Global Entrepreneurship Festival (GEF)taking place later this year in Accra, Ghana. The Hebron Start-Up Lab has become one of the most dynamic student innovation environments in West Africa, consistently equipping young entrepreneurs with the skills, tools and resources needed to build sustainable ventures in the real world.
In line with our commitment to purpose-driven impact across the UK, Europe and Africa, GrapeVine360 will work alongside the Covenant University leadership and the Hebron Start-Up Lab team to identify six student-led products that will enter a structured pilot process. Each product will receive detailed assessment, business support and strategic guidance in preparation for a final selection.
From this group of six, one outstanding product will be chosen and fully sponsored by GrapeVine360 to be showcased at the GEF 2025 Festival in Ghana. In addition to having the opportunity to present the product to key stakeholders, investors and industry leaders at the Festival, the selected student team will also benefit from:
- Direct mentorship and coaching from the GrapeVine360 business and advisory network
- Real-world exposure and professional engagement throughout the GEF programme
- A feature on the forthcoming TV show, Business Secrets From The GrapeVine, which will provide international visibility and further platform the young innovators
This initiative is anchored in a shared belief that talent, innovation and opportunity must be intentionally connected. By partnering with Covenant University and the Hebron Start-Up Lab, we are creating a clear pathway from the classroom to the global stage—allowing students to not only dream, but to actively participate in shaping the future of business and innovation in Africa.
GrapeVine360 looks forward to walking this journey with the Covenant University community and shining a spotlight on the creativity, excellence and bold thinking emerging from its student entrepreneurs.
