Mapping a new narrative for Africa’s entrepreneurship
Local and versatile entrepreneur, Twapewa Kadhikwa, will launch a new reality show, “Twapewa Kadhikwa, the Queen of Entrepreneurship” on 9 November. The show aims to equip entrepreneurs and business people with a new mindset towards business growth while mapping a new narrative around Africa’s approach to entrepreneurship.
The show, which will premiere on Eagle FM between 20h30 and 21h30 will also serve as a mentorship platform for both existing and prospective business people.
The radio premiere of the show is expected to be followed by a television premiere early 2021.
“Entrepreneurs are a key component of Namibia and Africa’s developmental agenda and it is with great pride that I take this journey to provide a platform which they can, like any other industry, be heard. We have been working extremely hard to ensure that this is not just yet another business show, but one that actively contributes to our growth as a nation and continent at large,” Kadhikwa said in view of the show’s premiere.
She continued that the show will serve as a bridge towards creating a culture of mentorship in both Namibia’s formal and informal sectors.
On the show, Kadhikwa will be engaging, discussing, probing and unpacking key topics with various speakers, ranging from entrepreneurs, professionals, experts, leaders and trendsetters.
The opening show, which will be titled, “Why you should start a business, Now!” is one not to miss, Kadhikwa emphasised.
“In this first episode, I will summon my experience as an entrepreneur for many years to impart invaluable knowledge that may change the lives of many. Therefore, this will be a special episode not to be missed,” Kadhikwa further stated.
The show produced by Twapewa Kadhikwa of the Institute of Entrepreneurship and SME Development will also be available as a live stream on Facebook.
“I remain grateful to Eagle FM who saw the potential of this show and availed their platform to commence the show. Indeed, the show will be a reality TV show as well next year but this platform gives us the right audience and creates scope for growth and development for the next one year and beyond. I encourage those who may want to further partner with us on the initiative to contact me immediately,” she said.
The show will allow live callers to engage with Kadhikwa on key aspects of an episode.
Kadhikwa holds a Bachelor of Comm (Admin) degree from Unam and an Honorary Degree from the International University of Management (IUM). She is Proprietor of Xwama Cultural Village, managing partner at Kadhikwa Chicken Farming, Director of International Uranium Exploration Company – Bannerman Resources, Founder of Olafika SME Development & Mentorship Programme and CEO of Twapewa Kadhikwa Institute of Entrepreneurship & SME Development.
