Soweto: #1976reimagined: youth-led enterprising economic growth
June 28, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
FreeAs we upgrade ourselves from the politics of 1976 to the economics of 2019 during youth month in South Africa, #1976reimagined becomes extremely relevant as we continue to fight in the trenches against unemployment, inequality and poverty. These 3 major evils facing our country are coupled by personal challenges we all face: doubt, discouragement and past failure. Young people are going through a lot in this economic depression. THUD constantly fights to be part of the solution in enabling trade for entrepreneurs with public & private sector procurement as key market access enablers.
This month THUD celebrates some of the Soweto’s finest talent in the entrepreneurship arena, namely, Banele Rewo, Founder of We Are Coming For Everything, Katleho Motingoe, MD of The Digital Plug, Lethabo Mokoena, Founder and CEO of Walk Fresh.
- Market Access: where to look (demand); how to position yourself (strategy); when to look (timing)
- Working Capital: how to fund my projects; how to access seed capital; what to do to qualify
- Capacity Development: How to grow your operation; When to grow; Why compliance is a key enabler of trade access
