CHALLENGES WITH RUNNING A BUSINESS IN CAMEROON? SIPEC 2 GOT YOUR BACK!

We are a few days away to the second edition of SIPEC. Behind the scenes, everything is being put in place so the event is as informative yet as light hearted and fun as ever.

The SIPEC initiative was launched last January with an aim to promote the spirit of entrepreneurship in Cameroon through identifying entrepreneurs and small businesses and creating a platform whereby their services can be marketed in an informal way.

A brainchild of Etonde Martin and hosted by her events management company Sheraiz Delightz – SIPEC an acronym for “Sherai’s Initiative for Promoting Entrepreneurs in Cameroon” was inspired by her stay and consequent revisit to the blossoming city of Nairobi in Kenya. This is what Etonde had to say “I was blown away by how much Kenya had changed when I visited in 2013. The economic activity had given the country a face-lift. I also discovered my school friends had moved up too, some working and most running their own businesses.”

Through this blazing new wave and also through an inspiration from a classmate’s business, Etonde returned to Cameroon with a vision to empower budding entrepreneurs and their businesses.

SIPEC 2 will be held at the elegant Star Land Hotel in Bonapriso on April 29^th backed by an array of businesses from different fields such as Rainbow Sports Investments, Teks Design, Graffi, SmartTrack, CRTV, FabAfriq Magazine, STV, Leading Industrial Supplier/Loire Industrie Sud (LIS), Ecobank, Thonbs, AVT Media, AJC Graphic, White House Restaurant among others. The event will focus specifically on the topic of overcoming barriers for doing business in Africa and Cameroon in particular, led by a guest speaker.
