Nominate Exceptional SMMEs for SATSA Tourism Business Incubator (new slots open)
As reported back by SATSA CEO, David Frost, at yesterday’s AGM, the impact of our Tourism Business Incubator has echoed throughout our industry, inspiring change, and exemplifying the potential within every SMME.
We are proud of our achievements, our collaborations with key associations like ASATA and FEDHASA, the incubation of 32 black owned SMMEs, and our support from well-known members including City Lodge Hotel Group, Europcar, New Frontiers, and more.
SATSA’s Tourism Business Incubator, a Non-Profit Company established to help SATSA members and stakeholders implement enterprise and supplier development, shares the mission with others like Anglo American Zimele, to foster growth beyond boundaries.
Now we're looking ahead to year two of the project, and with ten places having become available, we invite you to play an essential part in this journey by nominating deserving small businesses (with 51% or more black ownership) for our incubation program. Nominees should have a turnover of less than R50 million and be operating for at least one year. Your nominations can elevate these entrepreneurs, contributing to our entire industry's prosperity.
