On June 27th, 2025, we joined stakeholders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers in Owerri to mark World MSMEs Day, an event organized by the National Productivity Centre. It was a vibrant gathering filled with energy, ideas, and a shared commitment to the growth of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Nigeria.
At CSAAE, showing up for small businesses isn’t a one-off event—it’s what we do every day. During the workshop clinic, we had the opportunity to contribute to conversations around the challenges MSMEs face and the practical steps needed to support their growth. From access to finance and mentorship to digital transformation and policy advocacy, the dialogue was rich and forward-thinking.
Doing the Work, Every Day
Our mission at CSAAE is simple but powerful: to help people build sustainable businesses and careers that uplift communities and drive development. Through our C-Enterprise Program, we work directly with emerging entrepreneurs—offering training, mentorship, and access to resources that help them turn ideas into impact.
We believe that small businesses are not just economic units—they are engines of innovation, job creation, and social transformation. That’s why we’re committed to building an ecosystem where they can thrive.
Leading by Example
CSAAE is proud to be a pacesetter in this space. We’re not just talking about change—we’re doing the work. We’re showing up in communities, engaging with entrepreneurs, and building systems that support long-term growth. Whether it’s through our enterprise development programs, advocacy work, or community engagement initiatives, we’re setting the standard for what meaningful support for MSMEs should look like.
Join the Movement
We know we can’t do this alone. It takes a community of partners, supporters, and believers to build a future where small businesses are empowered to succeed.

Together, let’s keep building. Let’s keep showing up. Because when small businesses succeed, we all move forward.
