The trainings will be held at the district level. Successful applicants would be provided with information on the venues for the training.

About the Competitive Startup Grants

Not everyone is eligible for grant support.

No, beneficiaries would be assessed by the Grants Management Team before they would be provided with grants support.

The start-up grants will be provided for the following:
• Purchase of machinery and equipment, or technology (software, process technology, etc.)
• Start-up business investments targeted at productivity and growth such as marketing and sales, innovation efforts, or operational efficiency
• Working capital, such as purchase of raw materials and consumables, and payment of salaries, rents, and other accounts payables
• Payment for technical advisory services, training, and subscriptions to platforms
• Payment for regulatory compliance, e.g., RGD, FDA registration and license, GSA certification, etc.
• Start-ups seeking to provide essential goods that helps to mitigate against the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or any other disease that may pose a threat to the nation

Grants are non-repayable. Grant beneficiaries would therefore not be required to repay their grants.

Yes. The Grants Manager and his team will review or check all expenditures related to the grants paid to each beneficiary to ensure conformity with the Grants Agreement.

Grant will be competitively awarded, meaning it will be given to the best applicants using a set of pre-determined assessment criteria jointly established by a local team of experts and a team from the World Bank Group. Beneficiaries of the Competitive Startup Grants will therefore be limited to 5,000 youths.

The GEA is committed to assessing grant applicants transparently and ensuring that only the best applicants receive the competitive startup grants.

A key step to ensuring transparency is the limit of human interferences in both the grants application and assessment processes.
