Our Approach

TechnoServe has a two prong approach to business development in South Africa.  Through our Technical Assistance and Mentorship we help build businesses and industries that can create economic growth in rural areas, while our Entrepreneurship Development Programme, (Believe Begin Become) assists entrepreneurs in turning good ideas into workable businesses.

 

 

Identify a high-potential industry that can support scaleable, replicable businesses the rural poor, and the point(s) along the value chain where interventions can be most effective   Find someone with business aptitude and the drive and determination necessary to succeed   Provide the necessary technical and business development support to help the business reach its full potential   Improve the business model based on experience and use it to launch or expand more businesses within the industry   Promote regulations and policies that improve the business climate

 

Believe Begin Become is a national business plan competition and entrepreneurship development programme, designed to assist South Africa's entrepreneurs, through training and mentorship, in creating and growing sustainable businesses. There are four key components to the programme.
