Dangote Business School Partners to Digitize Nigerian MSMEs

A Kano-based firm, in collaboration with Dangote Business School, has announced a partnership aimed at digitizing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Nigeria. The initiative, led by Ahm Idri, Executive Director of Enov Lab, seeks to equip local business owners with practical tools and operational frameworks to transition from manual processes to high-growth digital operations.

The partnership will produce a comprehensive MSME digital handbook, currently under development, which is expected to offer step-by-step implementation guidance, assessment tools, and practical templates to help business owners automate core functions effectively. Enov Lab emphasizes that their approach transcends mere technological adoption, focusing instead on embedding operational resilience to ensure MSMEs remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market.

Dangote Business School, recognized for its focus on entrepreneurial management capacity building, will complement this initiative by providing academic rigor and structured training to support MSMEs in adopting digital solutions, thereby driving long-term economic impact and ensuring sustainable growth for the next generation of Nigerian enterprises.
