Please give us a short summary of your website?
Yipe.org is an online portal providing business skills training, information on how to access finance and business opportunities to East African youth entrepreneurs, in a region where over 70% of micro, small and medium enterprises do not survive their first year of operation.
The portal "Yipe.org Entrepreneurship Portal" is the first of its kind in East Africa specifically targeting youth entrepreneurs with free information and resources aimed at ensuring business sustainability. Unlike other business sites for East Africa, Yipe.org's Entrepreneurship Portal also hosts a network platform for young entrepreneurs who aim to create and manage growth oriented social enterprises.
On a wider scale, the portal also provides valuable information to aspiring entrepreneurs, business and economic development students, micro-finance institution managers, government policy makers as well as development agencies seeking to promote business opportunities and wealth creation in the region.
