BOCCIM Youth Expo to promote young entrepreneurs

The youth expo will be held between March 24 and 26 in March in Francistown under the theme 'Accelerating Youth Entrepreneur Contribution towards Eonomic Diversification Drive'.

Northern Regional Manager for BOCCIM, Eileen Van der Est, said that the expo is meant to help the youth. "We were looking at the fact that youth are not upcoming at the northern trade fair. [They] have no platform there," she said. She said by introducing the expo, they are giving the youth a chance to showcase their talents and business skills as well as help them network in the corporate world.
