The Knowledge Acceleration Programme (KAP) hosted by LaunchLab has now opened its doors for registration.
KAP begins on 8 November 2016 and will take place twice a week during the evening at Nedbank’s Stellenbosch University LaunchLab.
The entrepreneurial development programme is designed to equip aspiring entrepreneurs with business planning and management skills.
More specifically, key learning outcomes for participants will be:
- How to manage cash-flow as well as profit and loss
- Estimation and pricing
- How to design competitive business models
- Understanding and developing a successful marketing strategy and planning skills
- How to identify viable business opportunities
LaunchLab has opened registration for their Knowledge Acceleration Programme
Limited to only 20 participants, registration is bound to fill up fast. Out of the participants chosen to take part in the KAP, only one stands a chance to win R15 000 in seed funding. The programme is open for any practising entrepreneur, business manager, as well as key staff who would like to broaden their skills.
Content for the programme has been provided by the Centre of Entrepreneurship of Regent University in Virginia, USA and will be facilitated by accredited mentors and facilitators.
Last semester’s winner, FG Adriaanse, a Masters student at Stellenbosch University pitched his business ADAGAIN Technologies and won the R15000 in seed funding. Adriaanse’s ADAGAIN Technologies also received three months free space at the Nedbank Stellenbosch Unversity’s LaunchLab.
