“The SMME Opportunity Roadshow is a valuable educational event that helps SMMEs discover how to implement a winning business model that will create jobs and improve employee skills,” says Abigail Botha, event manager at Cape Media, organisers of the SMME Opportunity Roadshows.

“We understand the difficult environment in which small businesses have to operate and the challenges they endure. However, we believe that successful entrepreneurs are needed to build a strong and thriving economy in South Africa and this is why we want to provide them with the vital resources needed to transform their drive, passion and ambition into a sustainable business.”

Speakers

The programme director for the day is Justin Asher of Picup Technologies, while other invited speakers include Luvuyo Rani (Silulo Ulutho Technologies), Adii Pienaar (Receiptful & Rockstar Foundation), Edith de Vries (director-general, Department of Small Business Development) and Tshidi Mahlangu (SAA).

Masterclasses will cover:

• Fundamentals of sustaining & growing SMMEs
  
• Enabling funding for SMMEs
  
• Scaling up SMMEs: the future growth drivers of the SA economy

Western Cape businesses are also invited to exhibit on the day and network during the engaging breakaway sessions.
