About Youth Entrepreneurship Program (YEP) |
|
The Young Entrepreneurship Program (YEP) has been founded through the D.A.D Fund, in conjunction with the University of Nevada (through the Northern Nevada International Centre), Sierra Nevada College and the US State Department. YEP aims at giving young entrepreneurs the opportunity of mentorship with businesses and tertiary institutions based in the United States of America. This will be done by offering a 5-week mentorship / exchange period for South African entrepreneurs to be placed with specific institutions as part of a skills development program. The first intake of participants in the YEP is scheduled to travel to the USA in February 2010 and the second in October 2010.
