Participating schools included Oti Boateng Senior High School, Oyoko Methodist Senior High School, and Ghana Senior High School (GHANASS).
Lady Juliet Nyarko Adansi, the Country Lead for Seed of Fortune-Ghana, explained that the students were trained in creating email accounts, email etiquette, business pitching, website development, and career planning.
She mentioned that the selection criteria for the Girls Start-Up Competition focused on students who developed the best business ideas, particularly those with social impact and innovation, as well as those who created well-designed websites. Several students put in strong efforts to win the competition, with tablets awarded as prizes.
