The Federal Government of Nigeria has received financing from the World Bank to implement the Growth and Employment (GEM) Project, aimed at supporting Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) operating in manufacturing and service sectors, specifically: ICT, Entertainment, Hospitality and Tourism, Light Manufacturing and Construction. The project support addresses cross cutting sector issues, assistance to specific clusters, and direct support to firms in the form of training, technical assistance and grant schemes.
