Happy Global Entreprenueship Week (GEW) 2024! 

As we celebrate the 10-year anniversary of GEW, we're honoring our top 10 favorite female-owned businesses that inspire us with their innovative spirit, commitment to community, and dedication to excellence.

We are thrilled to celebrate Aisha Abimbola Usman, CEO of Moini Schools, a distinguished alumna of Grays International College, Jos University, and the Nigerian Law School. This female entrepreneur, nurtured by a dream of transforming lives and a deep love for children, saw her vision flourish. Inspired by her mother, a dedicated teacher who provided her with an exceptional education, Aisha envisioned creating a school that not only excelled academically but also fostered the holistic growth of young minds, nurturing their talents and instilling strong values.

Aisha's journey is a powerful testament to the transformative power of vision, perseverance, and unwavering passion. Her remarkable achievement – transforming a small school with just three pupils, one teacher, and a daycare with three nannies into a thriving educational institution – is truly inspiring. By establishing a secondary school, she has not only expanded educational opportunities but also significantly contributed to the growth and development of her community.

Under Aisha's unique leadership, Moini Schools has prioritized professional development for its teachers, embraced innovative teaching methods, and created a vibrant and engaging learning environment where children can thrive. The Moini Scholarship program, which provides free education for the children of staff and supports pupils who have lost their parents, exemplifies her commitment to giving back.

Aisha's unwavering dedication to education and community development is a testament to her strength and character. We applaud her for consistently pushing boundaries, inspiring young minds, and transforming lives. Let us continue to empower others to share their knowledge, experience, and passion, inspiring a new generation of entrepreneurs and educators.

 Congratulations once again, Aisha Abimbola! We eagerly anticipate your continued success.

THE RNID 2023 FOOD PACKAGING FOOD Success Stories 

On the 1st October, 2023 students food and drinks competition and packaged product at the Second Session Of Reality Nigeria Independence Day competition celebrating Nigeria at 63. Held on Saturday, October 28th, 2023, at Reality Services Auditorium Kaduna.

 Special Guest of Honor is The Director, NAFDAC North west Zone Kaduna.

World Entrepreneurs' Day (WED) 2023 Success Stories 

We would like to bring to your attention the 10th year anniversary of WED's dedicated activities in our community. A decade ago, Reality Investment & Consultancy Service Ltd embarked on a remarkable journey to join in the Global Annual Celebration of amazing Entrepreneurs with extraordinary determination. Over the years, WED events have been institutionalized as a community vehicle, bringing entrepreneurs together to promote Entrepreneurship Education, Quality Products/Services, and sharing innovative ideas in order to create an atmosphere of business sustainability in our community. 

The journey of WED has seen the birth of many business products in many ways, aimed at promoting business innovation, creativity, and tasking entrepreneurs to live up to expectations in the world of business that demands business continuity in order to succeed in our competitive society. 

It's important to share with our stakeholders that during this year's WED , the team focused on providing up-to-date information on new business opportunities through various survey reports conducted and shared freely, B2B linkages to investors, partners to promote networking, which has yielded partnerships and strengthened business ventures. 

In the last years, WED has created much-needed awareness within and outside of our community about who we are and what we do to satisfy our amazing customers. 

Our experiences and challenges have motivated us to strategize in our efforts, working around the clock to interact with various levels of entrepreneurs to gain insight into the ways different entrepreneurs manage their businesses and give them a platform to share the knowledge gained with young entrepreneurs. The experiences we gained have given us an edge to be part of policy decisions that represent the entrepreneurs' interests. This has gained us recognition, honor, and respect for consistency and our ability to help entrepreneurs effectively translate their challenges into opportunities. We at WED will continue to share our experiences through various publications and at Global Entrepreneurship fora. 

There is hardly any journey without challenges , and in the last decade, we have identified three major onerous challenges peculiar to the community. They include:

1. Making emphasis on social activities first without prioritizing other essential business areas that will enhance business productivity, relegating entrepreneurs' forums as less important, as seen in the low Entrepreneur participation in such forums.

2. The challenge is the culture of business copy right syndrome without exploring other new business opportunities in the community for startup by individual or group. The imitation of businesses (just because one entrepreneur starts up a business, another will venture into the same, mostly within the same location).

3. Some CEOs' culture of delaying response to documents sent to them for necessary action, lack of prompt feedback on issues related to businesses that affect great initiatives that should benefit our community.

The solution to these observed challenges is for us to embrace best business practices and transformation to change the way things are done by entrepreneurs.

Some of our successes can be traced from feedback we received at the end of each program by analyzing and taking notes of the majority comments that have continuously shown Entrepreneurs' appreciation of our consistency in organizing Entrepreneurship activities in the community, offering business clinics to support entrepreneurs to achieve their business strategic goals, promoting family businesses in the community, management of Entrepreneurship database, and most importantly, the trust given to us by the stakeholders. 

We, in no way, take this show of support for granted. We must, therefore, say a heartwarming thank you for being a part of the WED journey. Together, we can build sustainable Entrepreneurship Community by grooming ordinary Entrepreneurs with Extraordinary Determination. 

 WED Anniversary Package: 

1. Entrepreneurs with three consecutive WED certificates of attendance will receive a special order of his/ her products or services ranging from 50k-100k from August 2023.

2. Receive WED commendation at the 2023 WED event for championing the promotion of Entrepreneurship development in the community.

3. To be shortlisted and endorsed for any available opportunity; grant, loan, and capacity-building programs to boost their businesses and capacity.

4. Free participation at the 2023 WED event with a certificate.

5. Entrepreneurs' businesses will be shortlisted among the 10 selected businesses for WED 2023 documentation to be widely distributed.

6. 2 hours free business clinics with any member of our team: Dr. Rabi'a M., Aisha N., Amina O., Rukaiya I., Zainab M., and Abubakar Wambai 

 Congratulations to the winners! 

Thank you for believing in us at RICS. We look forward to continuous business relationships.
