ECP is an initiative of Prince’s Trust International executed by SEED Ventures since 2016 across Pakistan. It is a national competition for 14 – 18-year-old students that aims to inspire the entrepreneurial spirit within young people and transform them into the job creators of tomorrow. Jubilee Life's partnership with ECP aligns with its broader vision to alleviate socio-economic challenges by empowering youth and women, focusing on socially including and embracing those historically excluded. At the heart of this collaboration is a shared commitment to empowering the next generation of leaders in Pakistan. Jubilee Life Insurance recognizes the significance of investing in young minds, providing them with the tools and opportunities to become impactful contributors to society. Through ECP, the company has actively engaged with over 4,000 young minds from over 100 schools nationwide over the last five years. The skills gained include confidence, teamwork, problem-solving, decision-making, effective communication, and creative thinking.


Commenting on the milestone, MD & CEO of Jubilee Life Insurance Mr. Javed Ahmed stated, “Our collaboration with SEED Ventures on the Enterprise Challenge Pakistan is not just about sponsorship; it is about building a foundation for the future. We believe in empowering the youth, and ECP has been a tremendous platform to witness the incredible skills and creativity that emerge when given the right opportunities. This partnership is a testament to our commitment to creating positive social impact and nurturing the next generation of leaders and change-makers.”
