DRIVE SMME – ADVISING & COACHING FOR ENTREPRENEURS (ACE)

ACE Programme is the foundation of all the Enterprise Development products / programmes of TrioPlus Development which has been developed during the past decade. The experience from working extensively with entrepreneurs in the rural areas of Southern Africa has taught us the invaluable truth of establishing a relationship with the beneficiaries before the business development can commence.

Values like, trust, understanding, openness, respect and care, form the basis of the interaction between Trio- Plus and the beneficiaries. During the establishment of the valuable relationship with the entrepreneur, the business entity is evaluated according to a specifically designed ED assessment tool.

A structured Development Plan is compiled, against which, the progress will be measured and reported on.

Additional components are added to the ACE Programme, specifically designed, to meet the developmental needs for different stages of businesses in the ED landscape:

IDEAS & CONCEPTS FOR ENTREPRENEURS (ICE)

Experience confirmed that a structured approach to Enterprise Development should be followed, based on the content, knowledge component and educational level of New Venture Creation NQF level 2 qualification. Therefore, TrioPlus has developed an approach that combines the knowledge, skill and application of these standards required into a practical and effective incubation model known as ICE – Ideas & Concepts for Entrepreneurs.

The ICE programme is designed for individuals who need assistance and support with taking a business from concept to start-up. During this Developmental Route the following essential check points have been introduced to ensure that the incubation completes the required task and has a sufficient level of mastery before moving to the next step of development.

ICE candidates comprise of individuals that have a strong business concept in place or running an existing business at low operational level.
Optionally, a Grant funding linkage for successful Attendees is possible. This will assist emerging businesses to keep momentum after the Theoretical and Mentorship phase of the programme

NETWORKING EXPERIENCE & TRAINING (NeXT)

As the ICE programme is mainly for the Concept and initial Start-up businesses and GEM programme for the conversion of the higher end Start-up to Credible entities, TrioPlus realized the need for a Bridging Programme that forms a link between successful ICE candidates to grow towards the entry requirements of GEM Programme.

In essence NeXt is a 6-month bridging programme that allows individual business owners to expand on:

+ Networking skills with business owners in similar business entities. This consist of:
One networking session
One Focus Group Session
+ Equipping business owners with more business experiences that will guide them on their entrepreneurial journey. This is achieved by accessing and engaging successful community members or past students to share their insights and inspire personal growth. Two interactions with more experienced business owners will be linked to the Networking & Focus Group Session as mentioned above.
+ The Knowledge component will be developed through four structured training sessions, followed by a mentoring session per attendee, over 6-months period.

Although the programme is structured with networking, experience, training and mentoring, additional needs of the Business owners will also be taken into account.  A Development Plan will be compiled to address the personal and business gaps over a period of 6 months.
