We are delighted to have supported the official launch of CAPACITI, a leading non-profit in digital skills development in the Nelson Mandela Bay today at our Incubation Hub. Building an ecosystem of meaningful partnerships within both the public and private sectors acts as a catalyst for creating opportunities that empower young people. Our partnership with CAPACITI is a natural fit, as we are a high-tech incubator focused on fostering entrepreneurship and innovation.

Masifunde Changemaker Academy (MCA) was sadly affected by a robbery. Fortunately, no one was physically harmed, but we understand the emotional toll this incident has taken on the team and beneficiaries. As a precaution, MCA will be closed today, and all programs, including kitchen services, will be cancelled for the remainder of the week. In light of this, all medium to large-scale events at the Academy will be postponed. This includes the SMME Workshop 2, which will be rescheduled once regular activities at the kitchen and centre resume. We appreciate your support and understanding during this difficult time. We will share updates as soon as they are available.

This week’s #MondayMotivation is from Zandile Silo, our Lead Marketing and Communications Officer . A reminder that life has its glitches—computers crash, plans fall through, and things go wrong. But in the middle of the chaos, the best thing we can do is take a moment, breathe, and reboot. Every challenge is an opportunity to reset and come back stronger.

Marketing is one of the most powerful tools for a successful business. It is important to know how to effectively market your business. Yesterday, our Lead Marketing & Comms coordinator Zandile Silo facilitated the "Intro to Marketing" workshop for masifunde learner development's KasiEconomyHub entrepreneurs focusing on the importance of how to craft a compelling story for their business. Thank you to Masifunde and Ranyaka Community Transformation with partnership with Nedbank for this interactive session. More sessions relating to business development are yet to come in preparation for the Elevator Pitching Challenge. #entrepreneurship #marketing #ProudOfMyTown #propella #masifunde #kasieconomyhub

The time to start is right now. Stop imagining what you could do or should do and start doing it. Whether it’s a personal goal, launching that business idea you’ve been sitting on, or making a life change you’ve been thinking about for years-don’t wait. Get out of your head, push past the fear, and take the leap!
