To celebrate her 10-year milestone in the music industry, Stephanie Okocha, founder of Panda Entertainment, has awarded scholarships to two aspiring students from The Music Business Academy (MBA) for Africa 2024.

The beneficiaries, Emmanuel Nimmak and Michelle Uzuegbu, were selected based on their talent and creative potential, and the scholarships aim to equip them with essential skills for future success in the music business.

Reflecting on her journey, Stephanie shared how a lack of local music business education drove her to study abroad, emphasizing her passion for providing young Nigerian talents with opportunities she didn’t have. She stated, “Education is the cornerstone of growth, and I am thrilled that aspiring executives can now pursue their dreams right here in Nigeria.”

Through this scholarship initiative, Panda Entertainment reinforces its dedication to nurturing talent and expanding opportunities within the African music industry. Stephanie remains committed to launching more projects that empower and foster growth for emerging professionals in the creative sector.
