The Current Projects:

1.     Future 4 Kids (F4K) Series

F4K Series is an innovative series of educational solutions to teach kids about: Business/ Entrepreneurship, Finance, Careers and any other topic that will prepare them for the future. We are currently working on the first book in the series: an illustrated kid’s book that teaches business/entrepreneurship in the most visual, fun and practical way. This book is so practical that even adults can learn from it. Also, we will be working on the curriculum that supports the book.

2.     Enterprise Case Studies

W-HBS is preparing entrepreneurship case studies of Nigerian enterprises and small businesses covering diverse sectors of the economy that can be utilised for teaching Business, Management and Entrepreneurship concepts in Enterprise Development Centres, Polytechnics and Universities.
