Young entrepreneur gets platform to network

This new networking initiative was started in 2012 by Selebogo Molefe, popularly known as Dr Lifesgud and another co-founder Phakiso Tsotesi in South Africa and has since grown with countries like Botswana, Kenya, and Israel following suit. Following its launch in Botswana in August this year, THUD held its second event in Gaborone last week. The aim of THUD is for entrepreneurs to engage, connect and contribute to the success of various businesspersons via a relaxed session, which is in the form of an informal dinner. Budding entrepreneurs can also network with key industry players and get constructive advise on how to make it in business.

Barclays Africa Managing Director Dr Mabouba Diagne addressed about a 100 attendees at the THUDGabz session.
