Orange Sierra Leone has today 15th November 2022, unveiled its Business Booth at this Year’s National Youth Employment And Entrepreneurship Fair at the Bintumani Conference Centre, Aberdeen.

As a major sponsor of the youths’ event, Orange seeks to provide Job opportunities for young people, business growth workshops and premium entertainment.

In a bid to enhance entrepreneurship support, Orange also offers a chance to win 5,000 NL for youths who can pitch business ideas at the National Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship fair.

Head of Orange Public Relations, Annie Wonnie Katta reveals that “Orange is very keen on capacity building and youth empowerment so that’s why we are present here. We want to create opportunities for young people and also provide training and premium entertainment. At this trade fair, we allow young people to drop their CVs and we also announce Job opportunities that are available at Orange. We are providing coaching for young entrepreneurs. We are also organising a pitch for people with fine initiatives that provide solutions to societal issues. The pitch event is scheduled for Thursday with a Prize tag so the winners can use the money to add to his/her existing small business.”

Speaking on the rationale behind Orange serving as a strong sponsor for this event, she added that “We are aware that this government is passionate about digital inclusion so we are not just supporting the government but we are also preparing the youths for the future.”

She concluded by encouraging  youths to attend the trade fair as there are lots of opportunities for them in the three days program. She added that besides Orange, there are lots of other employers around and they might just find opportunities to grow and improve their middle-level capacity.

Popular Musicians Drizilik and Markmuday also performed and interacts with young people at the Orange Business Booth.
