Sahara Group Foundation dropped a new initiative called the Sahara Community Impact Project that wants to build specialized business hubs across African communities. Director Chidilim Menakaya said the foundation will connect local entrepreneurs with resources and training while cutting down on waste through their EXTRApreneurship approach. The pilot program launches in Nigeria before expanding to other regions.

The hubs will hook people up with shared production facilities, business mentorship, and financing connections through partner banks. Applications open next month for communities and entrepreneurs who want in. Bethel Obioma from corporate communications explained that the whole point is getting communities to compete globally without losing their local identity.

Project Lead David Ayinde wants everyone from media outlets to community leaders to help spread the word when the referral system goes live in the first quarter of next year.
