Kenya invites African Entrepreneurs to Scale their Ventures

AFIF 2017 will take place at the Strathmore University and will gather an audience of entrepreneurs, bankers, investors, fund managers, foundations, development and international finance institutions from Kenya, Africa, Europe, Middle East and America

BRUSSELS, Belgium, December 7, 2016/ -- EMRC (www.EMRC.be) in collaboration with Entrepreneurial Solution Partners and the Strathmore University is announcing a call for action for Entrepreneurs from all over Africa to bring their projects, ideas and running businesses and to discuss them with experts during the 2017 edition of the Africa Finance & Investment Forum (AFIF) (http://APO.af/YUVthk) in vibrant Nairobi.

AFIF 2017 will take place at the Strathmore University and will gather an audience of entrepreneurs, bankers, investors, fund managers, foundations, development and international finance institutions from Kenya, Africa, Europe, Middle East and America.

African Pioneers that want to stand out from the crowd and understand the different financing options are welcome to Nairobi, to participate in the interactive debates, the B2B meetings and the two day pre-Forum training on “Scaling an Entrepreneurial Venture”.

“During the AFIF training session, entrepreneurs will be asked to "begin with why" i.e. going back to the basic question of Why their businesses exist. We will then provide practical guidance that will allow entrepreneurs to unleash the potential of their ventures and realize their business ambitions. We will showcase key elements that make for a strong business proposition along with the main available sources of financing” says Yvette Ingabire, one of the Session expert trainers and Manager at ESPartners.

“Over the past years, where we traveled through different countries in Sub-Saharan Africa with the mission to promote entrepreneurs, connect them to partners and investors, we’ve realized that accessing financing and presenting appealing projects is a major challenge” says Idit Miller, EMRC Managing Director. “That’s why we’ve initiated, among others, the "Africa Finance & Investment Forum" and that’s why a special training session was conceived as part of the AFIF platform along with the 10.000 USD AFIF – Rabobank Entrepreneurship Award” (HERE - http://APO.af/NZ65vl – for Application Form) adds Mrs. Miller.

Entrepreneurship and Innovation will be at the spotlight of the 2017 edition of the “Africa Finance & Investment Forum”. If you want to be part of this unique and exciting platform, you are welcome to the Strathmore University from the 13^th to 16^th February 2017. A limited number of places is still available for the AFIF pre-Forum training on “Scaling an Entrepreneurial Venture” and interested Entrepreneurs are invited to register at www.EMRC.be.

VIJANA WAKUBALI MAENDELEO ENDELEVU, WAAHIDI KUYAPELEKA VIJIJINI

Makangale SATELLITE 6:15:00 AM Habari

Wakati wanachuo wa Chuo Kikuu cha Teofilo Kisanji (TEKU) cha mjini Mbeya wakiahidi kupeleka vijijini kampeni ya malengo ya maendeleo endelevu (SDGs) Mratibu Mkazi wa Mashirika ya Umoja wa Mataifa nchini na Mwakilishi wa Shirika la Maendeleo (UNDP), Alvaro Rodriguez amesema kwamba utekelezaji wa malengo hayo uko mikononi mwa vijana zaidi. Alisema nchini Tanzania zaidi ya nusu ya watu wake ni vijana hivyo wakielewa malengo hayo itakuwa rahisi kushawishi wengine kuhuisha maendeleo hayo na shughuli zao za kila siku huku wakitunza mazingira. Alisema shauri kwanini malengo yamekuwa mengi wakati yale ya Milenia yalikuwa nane tu, Mratibu huyo alisema kwamba suala si uwingi wa malengo bali maana yake na haja ya utekelezaji.

Alisema MDGs (Malengo ya Millennia) iliacha masuala kadhaa bila uelekeo ikiwamo suala la mazingira na mabadiliko ya tabia nchi na hivyo kuwapo kwake kunahakikisha uwapo wa maendeleo endelevu kwa kuwa kila kitu kinategemea sana mabadiliko ya tabia nchi kwa sasa. Alisema ni matumaini yake kwamba kuzinduka kwa jamii ya vijana itasaidia kukabiliana na changamoto hizo za sasa za dunia. Kauli ya mratibu huyo iliungwa mkono na wanachuo hao ambao walisema kwamba wanaona uhalisia wa mahitajhi ya sasa na kwamba watawasilisha kampeni hiyo maeneo wanayotoka ili kuwapo na mabadiliko.

Kwa kuwa wengi ni vijana na kwa kuwa asilimia 75 ya vijana wanaishi vijijini, itakuwa heri kama walivyofundishwa na Umoja wa Mataifa kupeleka salamu vijijini ili kukabiliana na tatizo la mazingira na mabadiliko ya tabia nchi ambayo yanafumua misimu ya kilimo na upatikanaji wa mvua. Kushirikisha vijana ni suala la msingi sana, hasa ikizingatiwa kwamba sehemu kubwa ya vijana wanatoka vijijini ambako malengo ya maendeleo endelevu yana maana zaidi kwa umma, alisema Kidai Kabula Shaban, Mwanafunzi anayesomea Shahada ya Sanaa, Sosholojia na Kazi za Jamii.

Amesema amefurahishwa mno na mpango huo wa kuelimisha vijana hasa utunzaji wa mazingira ili kukabiliana na tabia nchi. Alisema yeye alivyoelimishwa basi atahakikisha anawaelimisha wengine kuwa watekelezaji wa maendeleo hayo. Akirejea mazungumzo ya mwanafunzi huyo kwa niaba ya wenzake. Alvaro alisema amefurahishwa na mwamko wa vijana wa kutaka kujua malengo hayo na ni imani yake kwamba kwa kuwakujua wao basi jamii itaerevuka mapema zaidi.

Media stakeholders event and editors meeting

Makangale SATELLITE 1:58:00 AM Announcement

Greetings from TMF!

Since liberalisation in the 1990s, the media sector in Tanzania has grown to include a wide range of actors and diverse interests. As the legal, political, economic and cultural landscape of the country has changed so have media production and consumption patterns.

Technological advances have also had a significant impact on how people search for, access and share information. And recently, the president signed the Media Services Act (2016), which to some extent embodies the tensions at work in the media landscape of Tanzania.

In this dynamic context, what is the role of editors in promoting professionalism and editorial independence in the media in Tanzania? What does the future of journalism look like and how can the media effectively play its three-fold role of watch dog, agenda-setter and gate-keeper?

The Tanzania Editors' Forum (TEF) with support from TMF has organised a media stakeholders meeting to discuss the editorial independence and professionalism in Tanzania in the context of the rapidly changing media landscape.

The media stakeholders event will take place on 8 December, 9 to 4 p.m. at LAPF Towers and will be preceded by a TEF meeting on 7 December, 9 to 4 p.m. at Protea Courtyard.

For more information on how to confirm your participation, see the attachment or contact Rosemary Mwakitwange on the email: rosemarymwakitwange@gmail.com or number 0717 190 856.
