The HR Focus Magazine in partnership with MTN Pulse Ghana has launched this year’s HR Focus Business Challenge in Accra.

The Business Challenge is a competition that seeks to unearth the entrepreneurial strengths of students and job seekers, while building their confidence and their ability to think outside the box and on their feet.

“Birthed from the HR Focus Career Development session, the business challenge gives students the opportunity to explore innovative business solutions that are relevant in the world of work today “Nana Serwah Arthur, General Manager of Focus Digital said.
