FATE Foundation in partnership with Youth Business International (YBI) is pleased to announce the launch of the Aspiring Entrepreneurs Programme, Sustainability. This program is delivered using YBI’s flagship Green and Social Toolkits. The Green & Social Entrepreneurship Toolkit brings together a collection of 14 tools developed to empower start-ups and existing businesses with a social and green focus. These tools cover a range of areas, from legal health checks to business future-proofing, and build on the entrepreneur’s knowledge and experience of what works and what doesn’t when it comes to working with green and social practices to run their business successfully.
The program will run for 9 weeks. Participants will be exposed to an enterprise education program focused on gaining essential business knowledge, strategies, skills, and tools to build sustainable businesses within the green and social ecosystem.
To qualify, entrepreneurs must have a minimum of Tertiary Education, be founder/co-founder of an existing business within the green and social space, be computer literate, and have access to and be able to use a digitally enabled device.
