First Bank of Nigeria, Nigeria’s premier, and leading financial inclusion services provider, will host an SME webinar-themed “Rebuilding your Business” by 10 am on Tuesday, November 10th, 2020 via Zoom meetings.

As a brand committed to putting its stakeholders first, the SME Webinar is designed to empower the participants and promises to provide ways to access opportunities such as business financing, advisory, wealth preservation, and appropriate business coverage. These opportunities are essential elements in rebuilding and rebounding efforts, as well as the safety of businesses, towards their continued contribution to national development.
Speaking on the event, Gbenga Shobo, Deputy Managing Director, FirstBank said “at FirstBank, we identify with the indelible roles played by SMEs towards the continued growth of the Nigerian economy as without a doubt, they remain the engine of not just our economy but the global economy.”
“I enjoin every business owner to participate in this event in order to be enlightened with essential information to promote the safety and economic security of their business, especially at this time’’
Only recently, FirstBank partnered with the Lagos State Employment Trust Fund (LSETF) in a matching fund scheme to cushion the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on low-cost private schools by ensuring lending at an attractive interest rate.
Since the start of the year, the Bank has held several SME events including; an SME Business Clinic train that moved from Lagos to Abuja and Port-Harcourt in February.
The Bank later embarked on virtual SME-based events, in order to adhere to the social distancing guideline essential to promoting the safety of every participant in view of the COVID-19 pandemic. These SME-based webinars include SME Business Clinic in May as well as the SME Connect webinar to promote the growth of the education sector held in July amongst others.
