QUEST FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM ON ENTREPRENEURSHIP 2022

Deadline: August 21, 2022

In their learning journey in this fellowship, fellows will undergo three stages that are; explore, ignite, and launch. Progressing from one stage to the other entirely depends on how committed the participants will be to completing assignments, watching the lectures, and reaching out to mentors for help. Participants will be required to demonstrate commitment to the entrepreneurial process by completing the training and progressing on their ideas’ respective milestones. At each stage of the fellowship, new opportunities and resources are unlocked to help fellows learn by doing.
