Why This Event Matters
For too long, many have waited for jobs that never come. This initiative sends a bold message: If we cannot find employment, we must create it.
Elias Sibeko, one of the voices rallying behind this project, notes:
“This platform is about unlocking potential. Kasi entrepreneurs and job seekers must see that they don’t need millions to start. They need courage, networks, and the will to grow — and this symposium is the space to make that happen.”
Through practical sessions, exhibitions, and networking, participants will leave with skills, partnerships, and pathways for both business and employment.

A Call to Kasi Businesses
Kasi businesses are the backbone of township economies. From local vendors to small service providers, this event offers a chance to shine and scale.
The Business Symposium will empower entrepreneurs to:
- Network with institutions and fellow entrepreneurs
- Learn strategies to grow businesses with limited resources
- Connect with partners such as the Department of Employment and Labour, IEC, Coca-Cola Beverages South Africa, SABHIBA, and others
- Access mentorship, inspiration, and real opportunities
Now is the time for kasi hustlers to step into the spotlight and turn hustle into sustainable growth.

Motivation for the Youth of Ward 4
As the proud hosts, the community of Ward 4, Ecaleni Section, carries a special role in this initiative. To the youth: this is your moment.
Do not sit back while opportunities pass you by. Bring your ideas, your energy, and your vision. Whether you’re a student, an unemployed graduate, or a young hustler — this platform is designed for you.
Entrepreneurship is not about money alone — it’s about creativity, collaboration, and courage. Together, we can build something that lasts.
Elias Sibeko adds:
“The youth of Tembisa must not wait for opportunities. Let’s create them. Let’s connect, partner, and lift each other as we climb.”

Creating Our Own Future
This symposium and expo is about a shift in mindset:
- From waiting for jobs to creating employment
- From working alone to collaborating as a community
- From scarcity thinking to making the most of what we already have
Workshops, exhibitions, and discussions will equip attendees with practical skills — from business pitching and accessing funding to CV preparation and interview readiness.
