Latest VeloCITi Y programme unearths three top tech ideasVeloCITi Y, a training programme run by the leading Cape Town-based incubator, the Telkom Bandwidth Barn (The Barn) and sponsored by the Western Cape provincial government has nominated its top three tech businesses to watch, following its latest round of training. "The programme focuses on supporting viable technology and design projects," says Ansi Gillfillan, the programme's manager. "We take on any entrepreneur who is passionate, has a good, clear idea, and who is committed to making this succeed."
VeloCITi Y focuses primarily on giving entrepreneurs the knowledge, tools, training, mentoring and insight that it takes to be a successful business owner. "Cape Town is proud to be the hub of entrepreneurial development in South Africa," says Chris Vermeulen, GM at The Barn. "Many people have ideas but very few of them put them into action. The Barn helps new start-ups, who have been operating for more than six months, through the VeloCITi programme, plus we have a host of events and initiatives all of which support sustainable entrepreneur development."
