Paroma Enterprises Limited Uganda incorporated as a limited company by share later adopted several nonprofit projects under Paroma CEED/Community Empowerment for Enterprise Development and for the last 5 years have been promoting practical entrepreneurship skills to emerging, potential and existing entrepreneurs whereby through their services over 50,000 people youth inclusive have benefited with their services. But according to our research amongst urban youth, jobs, unemployment levels and school drop outs of young people between the age of 15-32 years; over 70% of graduates do not have jobs, 80% of unskilled youth are unemployed but willing to start up something if they can get practical entrepreneurship skills and at most 2 out of 5 business started by urban unskilled youth did not survive the first 5 years in operation due to lack of proper business plans, entrepreneurship training before they were started.
The youth is a critical segment in the society especially in urban setting and yet they are not central in social economic agenda. They form 70% of the Uganda populace and majority of who are out of school and unemployed. Hence the need for Rural-Urban Wealth Creation project that will address Entrepreneurship Development, Customer care, Entrepreneurial Competencies, Entrepreneurship process, Legal Issues in Business, Formulating Business Plan, industrial skills, agricultural skills, resources utilization, modern & general trade, international trade, branding, sales & marketing.
We therefore decided to carry out the Wealth Creation Project through Agriculture, Value addition, Innovation and Export promotion 2015-2020 project.

Entrepreneurship & Economic Conference
SSCG |Events |NEEGC 2014 3
About the conference Small and Medium size Enterprises (SMEs) and Entrepreneurs play pivotal roles in Nigeria’s fast growing economy. They create business and employment opportunities thereby improve people’s livelihoods. However, it is generally recognised that they face unique challenges, which affect their potential, hence diminish their ability to contribute effectively to the country’s sustainable development. Enterprises and the business community in Nigeria face overwhelming challenges including: lack of adequate talent and skills, inadequate capital and access to finance to foster growth, unsupportive business policies and regulatory environment, market competition, fast technological advancement, inadequate infrastructure and transport networks, lack of market information and industry standards. The aforementioned issues coupled with insecurity and poor governance constraint growth, industrial competitiveness and impede their contribution into the economy. Realizing the importance of small businesses and entrepreneurship as engine for growth in the Nigerian economy is paramount. Both the private and public sectors need to take steps towards addressing market conditions that hinder sustainable development of businesses and the economy. Improving access to capital and economic environment are important factors in increasing the development of SMEs and the private sector. If addressed effectively, will enhance industrial productivity, increase income levels, employment and thereby alleviate poverty. The conference is an important gathering in the sphere for government officials, businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, experts and institutions addressing the issues of financing, thought leadership, governance and entrepreneurship in creating jobs, SMEs development, fostering private sector development and economic growth.
