Help Mzuzu E-Hub with 10 volunteers for mentoring youth and women entrepreneurs
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Bizcubation brings new and innovative business ideas to life. Bizcubation- a fancy word for Business Incubation- was established in 2019 as Mzuzu E-Hub’s flagship program supporting youth led start up and emerging enterprises. Bizcubation portfolio enterprises benefit from determining the best business model and market strategy to commercialize their idea and measure the social impact, developing investor proposals for financing and establishing a significant contact network. Bizcubation has graduated 345 emerging entrepreneurs split in 8 cohorts with 46.5% female participation since inception. Bizcubation engages industry experts to support the emerging entrepreneurs through mentoring and coaching as they participate throughout the program hence the need for volunteers to support with mentoring and coaching.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
