We built @TheVillageUG because of the current outstanding industries which are technology & entrepreneurship. Our main aim is to provide what the entrepreneur is lacking & to help them get solutions for their struggles while innovating. - @CKJapheth#NSSFCareerExpo
Many entrepreneurs keep pursuing money but that’s not the main aim. Focus on the value and the customers, that’s the most sure way to attract investment and growth. @TheVillageUG Team Lead @CKJapheth#NSSFCareerExpo
- Research on skills needed as an entrepreneur
- Harness networks that can support your business
- Get basic financial discipline (own more than you owe)
- Learn your business & market - @AbsaUganda MD @MumbaKalifungwa#NSSFCareerExpo
As an entrepreneur, ask yourself what you're trying to solve, what is the product people want from you. Knowledge of your business is critical. Understand the environment you are playing in, who you are targeting, who customers are - @MumbaKalifungwa#NSSFCareerExpo
We are in an era of social and economic disruption, but this creates more opportunities for innovation. You can choose to have a fixed mindset or you can choose to have a growth mindset where you’re flexible - @nssfug MD @rpbyaru#NSSFCareerExpo
Technology is very relevant for entrepreneurs because it increases their customer base and supports communication with their customers. Advertising has also been made easy with digital communication tools - Michael Sekadde, Head of HR, @mtnug.

There is a rapper - 50 Cent - who says 'Get Rich or Die Trying'. What does he mean? Persevere. Keep trying and innovating and reinventing yourself until it works. - @AbsaUganda CEO @MumbaKalifungwa
