21 June - Labour - Cape Chamber of Commerce launches Chamber Youth Desk

In today's show, we spoke to Viola Manuel – Executive Director of the Cape Chamber of Commerce. The Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry has officially launched the Cape Chamber Youth Desk. According to the Cape Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber Youth Desk will become a representative embodiment of the development and promotion of youth entrepreneurial activity in the Cape Region and beyond. It will also become a key partner in engaging and lobbying government institutions to create a more favourable business environment for Youth Owned Businesses and to significantly reduce the cost of doing business for young entrepreneurs. Viola said they will be calling on big businesses to support the programmes of the Chamber Youth Desk and will also engage with their international partners to create an International Youth Fellowship Exchange programme.
