Upstart

Humanworx believes that Entrepreneurs make the world go round and create the future.

 We also believe that behind every successful entrepreneur... are entrepreneurship training and mentoring, critical future-fit skills and traits and mindsets. Entrepreneurship is a major source of economic growth, wealth generation and job creation as invention, employment and economic growth are fuelled by the entrepreneurial spirit.

​

Here are some reasons why entrepreneurship is crucial in today's economy.

Entrepreneurs create employment opportunities, boost economic growth, drive innovation and push the limits of the “possible”. What’s more, it creates wealth (think Microsoft, Apple and Tesla) and have the potential to transform entire industries.
 

The way Humanworx implements its “Upstart” project leads to diversity and social and economic inclusion of the socially and economically marginalized. How? Humanworx provides free QCTO-accredited Short Learning programmes to interested learners and youth and provides them additionally with life and business coaching and life skills training and workplace essential skills. 
 

These QCTO-accredited short learning programmes are ideally suited for senior school learners, students and the NEETs( "Not in Education, Employment, or Training") and include new venture creation, technopreneurs and workplace essential skills. 
 

Humanworx also creates an opportunity for a shot at the “big time” by hosting its annual “Guppy Tank” ( a friendlier version of the Shark Tank) event where qualifying entrepreneurs can present their ideas to investors and interested parties.
