Loyiso Langeni Minister of Small Business Development Lindiwe Zulu on Tuesday launched the Centre for Entrepreneurship at False Bay College in West Lake Campus.
The Centre is a product of a
five year Memorandum of Agreement between the Department and False Bay College
to target FET Institutions to promote Entrepreneurship education, training and
development.
Zulu said the College holds
the promise of making an important contribution to the advancement of all our
people and the development of the economy.
“Given the current state of
unemployment and poverty in our country, the question is not whether we should
encourage young people to look in the direction of entrepreneurship, but rather
can we afford not to. We see entrepreneurship as an important long term
response to the triple challenges of poverty inequality and unemployment. We
see small businesses and co operatives as critical to creating an economy that benefits
all.” Minister Zulu added.
