My highlight was when the ITS introduced me to study with Investec, one of the biggest company in Africa, I am an alumni of the Investec Startup School. I'm a black young woman driven and passionate about business, eager to grow but with little knowledge or understanding of the daily operations of a business. Ideation to Startup came right when I needed necessary skills, from drafting a business plan to presenting my ideas publicly without doubt. Busi

I am a proud Tony Elumelu Foundation Entrepreneurship programme Alumni because of Mjane’s relentless love to empower women. She regularly shares links in the whatsapp group then I applied for this particular one. I wouldn’t have known about it, so I am grateful to God for the value in my life since I connected with her.

MJ I joined this group not knowing anything about business I mean nothing at all. You took your time and taught us/me how to register companies, business plans and more. I personally know your door is always open because you opened it for me regardless of how busy you are. Today I am registering companies, designing websites and more because of your help. I have learned a lot from you I am still learning. Thank you very much MJ God Bless you much Love, Thando

In 2019 my business partner told me about this lady called Maryjane that she met who can assist us with our business. I joined Ideation Start-up on a what’s app platform. At that time I needed assistance on how to get funding for my business. As the group grew Maryjane realised a number of people were looking for funding and taught us how to write business plans. The purpose was for us to understand our business better. I had privilege to get a bursary at Investec start-up school. I am completely different and changed person, thanks to Maryjane A driven selfless always there to give her valuable support. Thami
