Comment SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT ENTREPRENEURSHIP Over the past year or so, a few of our International and Vocational committee members have attended some presentations given by budding entrepreneurs at TSIBA Ignition Centre. Newlands Rotary has awarded most of the entrepreneurs who presented to us with R3000 grants to purchase an asset that will make an important contribution to assisting them to take their companies to the next level. We have also attended and supported a pitch and poster competition between some of the entrepreneurs, through providing cash prizes for the top four presenters. The committee has also decided to continue to visit the centre to once again listen to entrepreneurs give presentations and motivations to improve & sustain their businesses and we will support those worthy ones. But we ask ourselves, where do we go from here and do we want to put more time and effort into helping mostly young people to start and sustain their own companies? So I have been surfing the internet and have started to read a book or two to get some ideas and inspiration. Andy Ismay
