Making A Difference In SOWETO

mdiVENTURES has been cementing joint venture relationships with organisations in Soweto.

The graphic below shows the link that flows from business networking relationships made at the INNER Circle Business Forum, to joint venture strategic alliances nurtered through mdiVENTURES, to a number of interconnected business strategies with differing business partners all designed to help one of our key partners - The SOWETO Chamber of Commerce & Industries - to make a significant difference to SME business entrepreneurs in Soweto.



Note the importance of bringing together motivated, enthusiastic independent business entrepreneurs (e.g. StaffWeb, Ubuntu Kraal and Ushamwari, some at grass-roots, first-time, start-up level (e.g. Community 100 Empowered) and recognised corporate institutions (e.g. Nedbank) to leverage off each others critical skills, resources and contributions.

If YOU want to make a difference in SOWETO in any way, let us know on this link and we'll get back to you ASAP to discuss how we can apply your idea, resource or contribution:

Thanks Shannon and Trevor and all the members of INNER Circle for a valuable and inspiring time (a INNER Circle PRETORIA)... it is always refreshing to spend time with quality people who are entrepreneurially minded and who aspire to make a difference in the lives of others.

Hi Trevor,
Many thanks for a really good INNER Circle at The PALAZZO session last night. I enjoyed it and aim to be at your next one as well. It’s a great concept and most beneficial. I have already recommended it to others.

Hi Trevor & Brian,
As usual the INNER Circle CRESTA meeting hosted by Brian was great. As a result I have the opportunity to see a further 10 people this week with the express purpose of investigating business relationships with them.

This is in stark contrast to another type of business networking meeting that I attended the next day. The best that I could manage was to have one person agree that I could phone them the next week with the possibility of arranging a meeting.

Congratulations to Trevor on developing a culture of people looking for business relationships with others who attend The INNER Circle meetings. This together with Trevor’s great strength of connecting the right people makes this forum a winner.

Regards

Geoff Higgs
