Enterprise Bureau

Enterprise Bureau (EB) is an Enterprise Support Organization (ESO) and a media platform for stakeholders of early-stage entrepreneurship. EB seeks to offer opportunities, through a digital ecosystem, for youth-led start-ups to grow their businesses. Our quest to support youth-led African businesses is informed by the failure rate of early-stage entrepreneurs mostly due to the mismatch between the quest for and the availability of resources. The gap between the “demand” for and “supply” of data creates limited access to resources for youth entrepreneurs and start-up stakeholders. Though there are several enterprise support initiatives in Africa, access to and sharing of opportunities purposely for the youth within the entrepreneurship landscape is inadequate and uncoordinated. This MISMATCH, which accounts for the high failure rate of youth businesses, is the reason for the formation and justification for the activities of EB. EB provides an enabling framework to connect and inform innovators, early-stage entrepreneurs, Venture Capital (VC) firms, start-up partners using data and intelligence on news, insights, funding, and opportunities in the start-up ecosystem. EB uses its digital platform to provide a safety-net for youth start-ups to leverage opportunities and enhance interactivity with other ESOs to scale up their businesses. We CONNECT youth entrepreneurs and innovators to ESOs and governments for a stronger network that will foster the growth of innovative enterprises in Africa. We INFORM youth entrepreneurs and innovators of opportunities and resources available to maximise their chances of success. We connect ESOs to build synergies that will increase enterprise opportunities, and we inform early-stage entrepreneurs of our comprehensive database of resources that will maximise their chances of success.
