Absa's WorkInProgress launches Wise-Up Wednesday Sessions
Charmaine Lambert, head of WIP, says that, while there have been many casualties of the Covid-19 lockdown, there have also been inspiring stories of hope, persistence and innovation.
“It’s been a dark time for many small business owners. Our intention with this webinar series is to provide inspiration and guidance by providing a platform for SMEs to share their stories.”
The webinar series launches this Wednesday, 1 July with Abe Cambridge, CEO of The Sun Exchange – a South African-based renewable energy startup that recently closed a successful funding round, totalling $4 million.
In the session, WIP general manager Freya Bell-Dreyer will talk to Cambridge about running a peer-to-peer, crypto-enabled business and the opportunities that come with solar infrastructure in Africa.
The Wise-Up Wednesday Sessions will run weekly on the WorkInProgress Facebook page: @WIPCapeTown.
