On Friday, July 25, the University of San Pedro hosted the graduation ceremony of the Solo-Agropreneurs cohort, marking the end of three months of intensive training for 25 young entrepreneurs from the cocoa, horticulture, and circular economy sectors.

The participants came with diverse and inspiring backgrounds — from vegetable production to agricultural product processing and transforming waste into sustainable solutions. Some joined the program with just an idea, others with businesses already in operation. They all leave with enhanced skills, a clearer vision, and renewed ambition.

The event was festive and warm, filled with music, celebration of individual progress, and the vibrant energy of a generation that believes in entrepreneurship as a powerful driver for change.
