Hi All
I have just joined BFP and am impressed. I come from an environmental background, working for an European Environmental Policy Institute. My main out-of-work interest is to see it is possible to mainstream social enterprises as a business model, and make it easier for them to get credit from banks and venture capitalists.

Looking forward to the debate...
AJ

Hallo Will

The ZA Trade Project provide a platform for collaboration between experiences consultants to perform quality business development tasks such as Business plan writing and fund applications services. I am a founder member of this network and use this platform to perform quality services. By subcontracting me, the economic development agencies are employing an experienced network who operate on local (South Africa) and international level to raise finance for projects which motive trade. This does not mean that the agency is not in control of their projects. Work will be published in the shared online folder hosted by BoxNet at intervals as required by the agency. Access to the folder will be password protected. Agencies can also use this folder to upload instructive documents related to the project.

You will increase productivity with more business transaction against less expenses and enable more supportive quality services to those you serve. I only charge a fixed monthly fee of R5,000 while government development agencies usually have to pay R15, 000 professional fees in support to those they serve. Development consultants and agencies who earn money from development operations (initiation fee plus success fee) can also benefit as they have more capacity by using our services while paying only a fixed fee much less than the market fee for this professional service.
My experience is that Venture Capitalist approve at most only 2% of the applications they received and an average 10% of the ventures they financed will succeed. Being a member of The ZA Trade Project, I have access a database of more than 4000 Venture Capitalists plus Development Finance programmes from Financial Service Providers International. By processing the business plan using the Software Application plus the 3 in 1 media (planning, information and trade) provided by the ZA Trade Project, I can match the most suitable finance products to each business plan processed and auto complete the funding company's application forms where applicable. This process saves time, improve productivity and increase access to funding.

If you have any problems accessing the document please send me a message using the facilities on this website. Also feel free to contact me with any proposal.

Hi! My name is Andualem Sisay. I am happy to join this group.

I am an Ethiopian journalist with several years of journalistic experience in both local and international media such as: www.capitalethiopia.com, www.addisadmass.com and www.africanews.com .

Currently, I am working as Analyst for Access capital, a business reporter for Addis Admass newspaper and Africa news (www.africanews.com).

I have various business ideas, which I believe can be realized and be fruitful with my knowledge, experience, contacts in the field and support of potential partners.

Firstly, I am looking for partners to implement my proposal of launching a new website, which allows African journalists to report on their respective country’s activities to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

Secondly, I also plan to introduce the first a daily updated vibrant online media in Ethiopia, which allows people to get fresh information and basic facts and figures whenever they type the word Ethiopia.

To this effect I am more than willing to discuss about establishing business partnership with anyone who is interested to launch this two unique websites.

You can reach me using one of the following addresses. andualemsis@aol.com, andualem.sisay@accesscapitalsc.com , andualem555@yahoo.com

Hello all,

I am also new to the group. I am hoping to network with members from this community to learn and also share ideas. I am currently working on a major project to help fight poverty in the ghettos and inner-cities of Jamaica. It is the first time that I am stepping out and doing somthing like this. I do not know how things will work out but I know that I have to do something to help the people of my country. You can find out more information about the One-Love Unity Fest project on my page. I am very open to ideas and suggestions. Thanks!

Hi all,

I’m a new member. I run a website called the Youth Interactive Portal for Enterprise (Yipe.org) that provides youth entrepreneurs with news, information and skills on starting and running business.

I am keen to hear about barriers to enterprise faced by entrepreneurs in different countries and how they overcome them. Coming from Kenya, I find that youth entrepreneurship here is given mere lip service, so I would like to hear how entrepreneurs are supported in other countries. You can see my profile to learn more about my work.

Hi everyone. I'm also new year, just signed up to BFP this evening. I run www.adupo.com, a website selling a wide range of fair trade gifts items imported directly from my business partner, Mike Mwaniki Njogu, in Kenya. so i think it is fair to say I am supporting a entrepreneur! for more information about the site and our products, see my profile or blog post or drop me a line.
