What our participants are saying
“The increasing number of approaches to starting a business is overwhelming. Instead of being a business tool, for me, Blue Ocean is a problem solving tool that more youth needs to be exposed to. You pick a market with issues you are interested in, study the industry and find your niche gap. The process was intense but at the end you get an affordable product or service with almost no competition."

"The Blue Ocean Programme brought a whole different experience of learning to be and how we run our programmes at Tshimologong. The aim of this programme was to train the entrepreneurs and coaches at the same time, That meant we had to learn the Blue Ocean Strategy while supporting the entrepreneurs in their project which was an intense but exciting challenge. I am grateful for the learning I received from the programme and looking forward to applying it both in my personal and professional life."
