The Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF) is a member of the Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs (ANDE). ANDE is a member‐driven organisation housed within the Aspen Institute, an international non‐profit think tank. ANDE members are leading intermediaries (firms providing capital and/or business development services), funders, and experts who share a common desire to create a movement to unleash the potential of small and growing businesses (SGBs) in emerging markets.
Participants in ANDE share a common goal: to dramatically increase the amount and effectiveness of capital and technical/business assistance for entrepreneurs in developing countries. With the right support, SGBs will generate much needed employment, and in the process, address critical social and environmental problems in the developing world. TEF is proud to be a part of the movement to enhance the potential for SGBs to make a difference in the fight against global poverty.
