OPay is set to host the inaugural Empowering Futures Conference 2025 on October 31 at the Marriott Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos.
This event marks a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to youth development and education in Nigeria.
The conference will reflect on the successes of OPay’s N1.2 billion 10-Year Scholarship Programme, which has supported hundreds of students across Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones. Since its inception, the programme has become a cornerstone of the company’s corporate social responsibility vision.
The inaugural edition of the Empowering Futures Conference will not only celebrate this progress but also mark the official unveiling of the OPay CyberLab Initiative, a project aimed at advancing digital literacy and innovation across Nigeria’s higher institutions. The conference will also spotlight the Graduate Recruitment Initiative, which connects top graduates with job opportunities within OPay’s ecosystem.
Elizabeth Wang, Chief Commercial Officer at OPay, will discuss how access to quality education and technology can create lasting change. She emphasized, “Through the Scholarship Programme, Graduate Recruitment, and now the CyberLab Initiative, we’re helping young Nigerians turn potential into purpose.”
The Empowering Futures Conference 2025 represents a defining moment in OPay’s CSR journey, a moment to celebrate achievements, unveil new initiatives, and reaffirm the company’s commitment to empowering Nigerian youth through education, innovation, and opportunity.
