There is a wave sweeping across the continent-many people are interested in entrepreneurship. Those employed are not getting enough income, those unemployed are seeking ways of earning an income. The young and old are all interested in venturing into business.
Our forum kick started the concept of monthly meetings every first Saturday of a month and we got encouraging results. An estimated 160 entrepreneurs thronged Leisure Centre in Chitungwiza on the 1st of February. Another meeting in Johannesburg attracted 15 entrepreneurs and this is a great start to 2020.
