The platform was announced at the Herbert Wigwe One-Year Memorial held in Lagos on Sunday, February 9, 2025.
Access Holdings said the platform is dedicated to sustaining and scaling the transformative impact of Wigwe, “a leader whose vision extended far beyond the boardroom and into the very fabric of Africa’s future.”
The company stated: “Herbert Wigwe was more than a leader; he was a visionary who believed that true success lies in creating opportunities, uplifting communities, and driving change that endures.
“He looked beyond obstacles to focus on solutions, growth, and positive transformation, inspiring impact across Africa.
“With an unwavering belief that Africa’s boundless potential resides in the hands of its young people, Herbert Wigwe did not merely speak about making a difference, he lived it.
