The program allows for creative expression in business possible and enables creative collaborations to happen. Most programmes are not focused on arts/creative based entrepreneurs, which makes it a niche in the South African landscape.

The more you give, the more you’ll get back. Treat people with trust and respect and you’ll travel further together.

NEVER STOP LEARNING

And share your knowledge too, others will benefit from it. What you take for granted may be key to unlocking someone else’s success, and vice versa.

GET IT OUT THERE

Keep challenging convention through innovation that allows your ideas and business to be seen.

Use different avenues to make sure that your business reaches its intended consumer.

SEEK OPPORTUNITIES
