Atunlo Green Earth Business Grant has opened its application for founders in climate-tech and circular economy sectors, offering support to grow impact-driven businesses. The fund, also referred to on the application form as Ayo Ogunlowo Business Grant, will provide N3,000,000 to two individuals who are ready to expand their solutions.
The grant aims to drive action, support early-stage execution, and build momentum for sustainable innovation.
The initiative targets businesses working in areas such as resource recovery, renewable solutions, and eco-friendly manufacturing. With rising climate concerns and waste pollution in African cities, organisers say access to finance remains a major barrier for young circular economy startups. “The Atunlo Green Earth Business Grant seeks to close this gap by providing financial backing and visibility for businesses with high environmental and economic impact potential,” the foundation explained.
The benefits include access to N3,000,000 funding support, improved capacity for production and technology adoption, increased visibility across the green enterprise ecosystem, and opportunities to scale climate-friendly solutions for commercial and social impact. The foundation noted that strengthening local solutions is key to building a resilient green economy.
Eligibility is open only to individuals who have an existing business in the climate-tech or circular economy space. Applicants must own a registered business with the Corporate Affairs Commission, whether as an enterprise or limited liability company. All funding will be administered through the Atunlo Green Earth Foundation.
Innovators with scalable ideas are encouraged to seize the opportunity to strengthen their environmental impact initiatives.
The application deadline is December 20, 2025.
