THE CHALLENGE

Extensive research with South African business development providers revealed a critical challenge: the quality of entrepreneurs entering their programs is often lacking.

 

Our education system places minimal emphasis on critical thinking, financial literacy, and entrepreneurial skills—skills that are essential in today’s fast-changing world.

OUR SOLUTION

To address these gaps, we created Vhaswa Vuwani (Youth Rise Up), a free, 10-week entrepreneurial program designed to equip participants with the skills they need to succeed.

 

​Through real-world business case studies, market research, and the development of minimal viable products, participants will gain practical, hands-on experience.

WHY IT MATTERS

With close to 60% of South African youth aged 15-25 unemployed, this program empowers participants to overcome the challenges of a competitive job market.

 

Whether they aim to start their own businesses or secure meaningful employment, Vhaswa Vuwani provides the tools and knowledge they need to thrive.

- DON’T MISS OUT! -

Innovate. Collaborate. Solve.
