The fund programme assists Historically Disadvantaged Individuals (HDI's) to grow their existing SMME tourism business through skill transfer, partnership, enterprise and supplier development.

Two HDI SMME's will be chosen through a selection process by the Cape Town Tourism Board whereby they'll receive support with the development and marketing of their businesses and will each receive funding to the value of R50,000. They will furthermore receive non-financial support by Cape Town Tourism via coaching, mentoring and complimentary members. The program will run until 31 December 2017.
