MBABANE – Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is one of the few
industries with an economic benefit for the next decades.
The 4th industrial revolution presented an opportunity for the business sector
to ease the way of doing things through creating new technological platforms.
Collaboration between Eswatini and Israel created a unique opportunity for
tech-savvy youth. “We are looking for the best of the best. The most talented,
educated youth, who dream big and have the basic knowledge and tools to make it
a reality,” mentioned Dr Ron Adany, a serial entrepreneur from Israel.
Start-up
Adany mentioned that the 35 most talented, motivated and promising young
entrepreneurs from Eswatini would gain practical knowledge on how to build a
start-up.  He said the seminar will bring a unique opportunity to learn and gain
hands-on experience with cutting edge tools and techniques to build start-ups
with minimal funds (bootstrapping) in a quick way. Adany will facilitate a
five-day seminar on how to build a start-up with US$100 at Tums Water World from
February 6, 2022.
“This workshop is a dream come true as I have always been passionate about
assisting aspiring entrepreneurs in succeeding,” he said. The event is in
partnership with the Lutfo Dlamini Foundation and would be sponsored by Jenny
Internet, the Royal Science and Eswatini Technology Park (RSTP) and Likusasa
Letfu Youth Centre in different categories. It should be noted that some of the
above listed sponsors are yet to confirm their sponsorship. For more details and
