Towards achieving this, it has rewarded winners in category one of the second season of its annual prize for innovation competition, focused on Innovative Techniques for Local Content Development in the Food and Agro-allied sector.
The high-octane pitch event, aired on February 18, 2023, brought together six finalists with businesses that have made significant contributions to the food and agro-allied sector, through their innovative ideas and practices. After a highly competitive pitch session before the judges, the winner and first two runners-up were selected.
“In this season, we saw a unifying business driver for most of the businesses, which have the potential for value creation both in the short and the long run. Usman further said, the invaluable and transformative nature of the FMN Prize for innovation continues to be apparent every year, reiterating the group’s commitment to enriching the lives of Nigerians across their various point of need.
