    How entrepreneurs can scale small businesses into sustainable enterprises

    As young people consider their professional options, they are often constrained between unemployment and hard to obtain public sector jobs. Those who aspire for more must be willing to think creatively, take risks, and even be branded an odd one out by their more skeptical peers. The power to shape one’s own destiny and become a change maker gives entrepreneurship an undeniable potential.  However, Research shows that most start-ups in Kenya don’t live up to their 3rd birthday and fail to achieve their potential.   In this podcast, Wangechi Muriuki, the Country Director Invest in Africa (IIA) Kenya, shares credible insights on how entrepreneurs can scale small businesses into developed and sustainable enterprises.  #SMEGrowth #SMEDevelopment #Entrepreneurship

    Enhancing SME resilience to Disaster Risks

    Disasters continue to pose a great threat to the sustainability of businesses. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are the most vulnerable due to limited capacity for resilience.   At Invest in Africa, we have been at the forefront of supporting the survival and growth of SMEs and our efforts have been heightened during the Covid-19 pandemic to enhance these businesses' resilience to the impact and gear up for future disasters. To achieve this, we launched a series of programs geared towards training, guiding and providing opportunities to these enterprises to enhance their capacity to scale up and remain resilient in the face of disaster risks. #SMERiskResilience
