In today’s fast-moving business world, staying offline is no longer an option for township entrepreneurs. With digital tools like online payments and visibility essential for growth, many businesses are held back by a lack of access and support. The TEA Workshop in Umlazi is more than just an event, it’s a vital step toward unlocking growth and future-proofing the township economy.
Why It Matters Now More Than Ever
The world is moving fast, and if township businesses don’t move with it, they get left behind. That’s the simple truth. In today’s marketplace, being visible and accessible are no longer nice-to-haves. They are essential.
Township entrepreneurs are some of the most innovative, but many are still running their businesses offline. No digital payments. No online presence. No access to platforms that can boost their reach. This limits growth, keeps them in survival mode, and makes it harder to build trust with customers.
Why digitising matters in kasi spaces:
The problem?
Many township businesses are not digitising because of a lack of support, training or access to the right tools. That’s why we are hosting this session in Umlazi. It’s not just another engagement. It’s a direct response to what we’ve seen across the country – a clear need to intensify digital transformation in the township economy.
