Enterprise Development Centre (EDC)

Enterprise Development Centre (EDC) is the leading enterprise centre in Nigeria and within the African continent.

Established in 2003 as the Entrepreneurship Center of the Pan-Atlantic University, the EDC, which was formerly called the Centre for Enterprise Development Services (EDS), began as a direct response to the shortage of available professional business development and support services to small and growing businesses in Nigeria.

With a mission to build a network of entrepreneurial leaders through commitment to continuous learning, process improvement and business integrity, EDC’s strength lies in its network of partners and collaborators.

At EDC, a lot of emphasis is being placed on partnership building, collaboration and constantly searching for value-driven initiatives and projects with high societal impact.

With a central objective of building capacity among MSMEs, the EDC has had a strong partnership with the BET initiative since its inception, in empowering entrepreneurs by training them with the necessary skills needed  and applying knowledge gained to transform their businesses into profitable ventures.
