Benoni business people get together for monthly breakfast meeting
In case you missed it, Northmead is home to monthly business meetings, where entrepreneurs can share their stories with anyone eager to learn.
The A Round 10 Business Clusters (ARTBC) is a breakfast forum where each meeting has a different speaker, each sharing their stories of success and what they learned along the way.
The initiative was started by Gryphon Enterprise Development, whose vision is to create unity and co-operation in local business.
The ARTBC aims at building resilient business communities in Cape Town, Johannesburg and beyond borders.
“The difference between our breakfasts is that we do not have motivational speakers, but rather real, tangible business people who come to share their business journey in order to re-ignite, encourage resilience, educate and inspire the audience to keep going in these turbulent economic times,” said Bonnie Chimanikire, project co-ordinator.
“This is not to build a networking relationship between companies, but rather to build a community of business owners, sharing advice and experience,” said Jacques van Heerden, A Round 10 Business Clusters (ARTBC) founder and CEO of Gryphon Enterprise Development.
At the meeting on June 19, the group was addressed by Bokang Seritsane, founder and chief maverick of Under 35 Mavericks, a youth entrepreneurship development consultancy and venture builder that specialises in developing and supporting young, innovative entrepreneurs.
The breakfasts are held every third Friday of the month, at Cherry Lane Café, in Northmead, from 7.30am to 8.30am.
There is a fee for the breakfast buffet.
