Founder of International Youth Empowerment Summit (IYES), Pastor Brain Amoateng, has launched the IYES Foundation to help create an avenue for brilliant but talented young individuals achieve their goals in life.

At the launch in Accra, Pastor Brian Amoateng noted how most young people, though challenged by speakers during IYES programmes to thrust forward and break barriers, the practicality is barely feasible because of the unavailability of start-up capital for them. The IYES Foundation he maintained, is here to breach such gaps and give them the push to reach their dreams.

“I wake up every day to not less than 10 messages on either Instagram or Facebook from young people that have business ideas….how can they do it, they need some money,” he noted.

According to Pastor Brain, he realised that there was an urgent need to go beyond just motivating young people to actually empowering them financially to enable them achieve their goals.

“We will create the platform for the young talented people to network with great IYES ambassadors to be mentored,” he added.

Pastor Brian said his IYES team will weigh the business ideas that will be developed and presented by young people before they can access the IYES Foundation.

About IYES

International Youth Empowerment Summit (IYES) was formed as a platform for the youth to exhibit their God-given talents to serve the Lord and also to spread the quest of achieving great things in their youthful period.

Over the years, IYES has created the platform for the youth to acquire practical expertise as Christian in the corporate world.

The summits are to groom, equip and polish participating youth as well as provide the opportunity for networking in spirit-filled ambience.

IYES is a global based initiative, a nonprofit organisation, headquartered in Ghana, dedicated to the spiritual, intellectual and emotional growth of young people around the world through proprietary programmes, revival summits, events, seminars and practical opportunities.

It strives to harness the drive of young people to be daring enough to achieve their dreams, develop leadership skills that are applied on a global level and to serve as a global-based network system to help and support the youth in their fields of pursuit.
