The School of Entrepreneurship was established with a clear vision: to cultivate a generation of successful South African entrepreneurs who can build sustainable and profitable businesses.
They believe that fostering entrepreneurship not only fuels individual success but also bolsters the nation’s economy and reduces unemployment.
Through their flagship program, the 4LIFE Entrepreneurship Programme, they aim to bridge the gap between aspiring entrepreneurs and the skills required to turn their dreams into reality.
