Jubilee Life Insurance Hosts Fundraising Dinner to Support Youth Entrepreneurship in Pakistan

Jubilee Life Insurance, Pakistan’s largest private sector insurance company, recently organized a fundraising dinner in collaboration with Enterprise Challenge Pakistan (ECP), a national entrepreneurship competition targeting students aged 14 to 18.

The event, held at the British Deputy High Commission in Karachi, saw the presence of notable dignitaries including Her Excellency Ms. Sarah Mooney, the British Deputy High Commissioner, and Mr. Will Straw, CEO of Prince’s Trust International, among others.

The objective of the dinner was to garner support from various partners for the Enterprise Challenge Pakistan Programme, an initiative aimed at fostering entrepreneurship among young individuals. Jubilee Life Insurance has been a key supporter of the program for the past five years, endeavoring to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset among the youth.

Over the years, the program has engaged with over 6,000 students from 200 schools nationwide, equipping them with essential skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and effective communication.

Mr. Javed Ahmed, MD & CEO of Jubilee Life Insurance, emphasized the transformative impact of empowering the youth, stating, “Our partnership with Enterprise Challenge Pakistan highlights the potential of investing in youth development to shape the future of our country.”

Shaista Ayesha, CEO of SEED Ventures, underscored the program’s mission to empower youth, stating, 

“Enterprise Challenge Pakistan is not just a competition; it is a journey towards empowering the youth to be change-makers.”

Will Straw, CEO of Prince’s Trust International, commended the program’s growth and impact, emphasizing the importance of supporting initiatives that equip young people with essential skills for entrepreneurship.

Looking ahead, Jubilee Life Insurance and SEED Ventures aim to expand the reach of Enterprise Challenge Pakistan, targeting 2,000 schools and 30,000 young individuals from underprivileged backgrounds across Pakistan in the next five years.
