The STARTUP Business Program

Any business starts with a concept or an idea - some undefined thoughts that are often disjointed and difficult to explain but this does not mean the idea is not a good business proposition - rather it means that the idea needs to be developed in a logical, sequential manner.

The Startup Business Program uses mentors to assist aspiring business operators to gain the skills needed for success, especially in their first year of operation.
