Amese Award\u201d at the DoPS Entrepreneurship Graduation ceremony recently held at the university. Younge is the third KNUST graduate to win the award since its inception in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cK.C. Amese Award\u201d was instituted by Mr Kormi Courage Amese, co-founder of Bluevyne Limited, an Accra-based start-up printing &amp; publishing company aimed at encouraging graduating students to start practical entrepreneurial ventures by themselves.<\/p>\n<p>For his prize, Isaac Younge received a cash prize and a plaque. Besides, he has automatically become a mentee who will directly benefit from business networks of the sponsor.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the graduation ceremony, Mr Amese said his goal was to help build 100 young entrepreneurial businesses in the next 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>He assured the gathering that any student or group of students \u2013 who have started an entrepreneurial venture of their own, done something practical, have a model that is feasible and the willingness to take the next step to ensure their dream becomes a reality \u2013 were eligible to benefit from his wide resources in mentorship and other assistance to start their journey to economic freedom to support nation building.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Amese believes strongly that creating a resilient entrepreneurial spirit will avert graduate students from joining the teeming unemployed youth in Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>He urged the graduates to follow their passion and continuously explore new opportunities to make a difference.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isaac Younge (left) receiving a plaque from KC Amese ISAAC EDELE Younge, a graduate student, has emerged as the winner of the KNUST entrepreneurial award instituted by an alumnus of the university in partnership with the university\u2019s Department of Publishing Studies (DoPS).
