Early Stage Investing Course
Early Stage Investing Course
Early-stage investing by individuals is a fundamental enabler of global start-up ecosystems, and a lucrative investment avenue for individuals with a healthy appetite for risk and sharing their expertise. Greater investment in start-ups also has a direct impact on our local economy and job creation.
To encourage more South Africans to consider investing in early-stage start-ups, the Department of Economic Development and Tourism (DEDAT) partnered with Fraser Consulting and The Loudhailer to develop an introductory course for students, professionals and entrepreneurs to kick-start their knowledge of the field.
Taking a total of just 3 hours to complete, this short course is designed to introduce you to the Cape Town start-up and investor landscape, and help you formulate your own personal investment strategy.
- Professionals interested in establishing an individual or group investment portfolio.
- High-net-worth individuals looking to invest in local start-up community.
- Successful entrepreneurs looking to re-invest in emerging start-ups & share their knowledge and expertise
