The Foursquare Church Without Bounds has announced the 2025 edition of its flagship youth and entrepreneurship initiative, TOUCH, aimed at equipping young Nigerians with leadership skills, business insights, and tools for national development. The program is scheduled for December 6, 2025, in Lagos.
Speaking at a press briefing, Faith Oluwagbesan, convener of TOUCH 2025, highlighted that the initiative is designed to inspire young professionals and entrepreneurs to actively contribute to Nigeria’s growth. “TOUCH is an annual platform that fosters career development, entrepreneurial excellence, and nation-building. Its goal is to encourage young people to invest in the country’s future rather than lose hope,” he said.
The event, to be held at Excellence Hotel, Ogba, Lagos, is expected to attract over 500 participants from across the nation. Structured mentoring sessions will provide direct engagement between industry leaders and emerging talent, bridging gaps and creating actionable learning opportunities. Previous editions have even supported startups by registering entrepreneurs for free with the Corporate Affairs Commission.
Oluwagbesan emphasised that discussions will focus on business growth, access to capital, and the creation of sustainable enterprises, noting that young Nigerians possess the creativity and drive to strengthen both the economy and the nation. He also highlighted the importance of consistent government policies and supportive regulations for small businesses to thrive.
The program will host an impressive lineup of dignitaries and thought leaders, including Tunde Lemo, former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria; Chioma Ajunwa, Nigeria’s first Olympic gold medallist; Iyin Aboyeji, founder of Future Africa; and executives such as Oluyinka Adebiyi, Chief Client Officer, Guinea Insurance PLC, and Kola Olugbodi, CEO of Background Check International. Other participants include award-winning MC Mojibade Sosanya, leadership consultant Bright Ukwenga, education entrepreneur Adewunmi Onofomi, and content strategist Dafe Richards.
Through TOUCH 2025, the Foursquare Church Without Bounds reaffirms its commitment to empowering young Nigerians, fostering entrepreneurship, and cultivating the next generation of leaders capable of driving business innovation and national transformation.
