About This Opportunity

SMEDAN reopened its Conditional Grant Scheme portal in August 2026. One-time, non-repayable ₦50,000 grant for nano/micro businesses to fund equipment, working capital, technology or expansion, on the condition the business employs at least one additional worker. Apply only through SMEDAN's official portal — the scheme is free; nobody should charge you to apply. Not the same as the Presidential Conditional Grant Scheme.
