POLOKWANE- On Friday, June 12 Curro Holdings organised a meeting with two dynamic young entrepreneurs to come and motivate learners in Polokwane at the Curro Heuwelkruin school hall.
Reabetswe Molapo (24) was one of the young entrepreneurs invited. She is the director of an organisation called Yung Heirz which helps to motivate, enrich and develop young minds. She is also the niece of dr David Molapo, chairperson and founder of the I CAN foundation.
After attending the University of Cape Town, she realised how she could put her various talents, like painting and being able to encourage people to a better and more financially rewarding use.
Jared Kleinert (19), a globally in-demand public speaker on youth entrepreneurship and Millennials, was the second young entrepreneur speaking at the school.
He is an American and the co-founder and co-author of 2 Billion Under 20, a book and a community bringing together some of the world’s smartest and most ambitious youths in order to inspire others around the world to act on their passions.
He also runs a marketing consulting firm helping some of the largest companies in the world to better market to and hire Millennials. Jared began his first company at 15, he worked for two Silicon Valley start-ups, and was named the Definition of Social Entrepreneur by Forbes at the age of 17. Dr David Molapo is also his mentor.
Reabetswe and Jared gave the learners a chance to share their entrepreneurial ideas and encouraged them to follow their dreams by using all of their talents to reach the top.
