TSIBA Business School and Northeastern University (USA) students have successfully partnered up for 12 consecutive years to host the NU Programme in South Africa. The programmes’ objective is to integrate cultural learning and experiences as well as give free business consultation to small businesses around Cape Town. Through this programme, 4 entrepreneurs were awarded R 20 000 each as part of the grant funding and 11 entrepreneurs worn R 2000 each. The 16 entrepreneurs will be incubated by The GARAGE for 18 months.
The Garage is TSIBA’s human-centered incubation hub, that helps entrepreneurs acquire customers, build sustainable businesses and create employment. Our focus is not rock stars and unicorns, we aim to help multiple entrepreneurs “Start-Up, Stay Up & Scale-Up” to create sustainable businesses, employment and contribute to the transformation of South Africa and society.
