For over a decade, Daystar Business Academy (DBA) has empowered countless business owners. Recognising the current economic challenges, we are bringing our DBA alumni, DBC members and entrepreneurs, and business owners from the wider society to this intensive two-day boot camp.”

Also, Head of the Daystar Business Community, Dr Blessing Ayemhere, said: “Our upcoming business boot camp is a unique opportunity designed to equip participants with the tools they need to thrive in today’s complex economic climate. This boot camp is designed for both startups and established businesses.”

Participants will also enjoy connections: network and collaborate with fellow entrepreneurs, fostering knowledge sharing and peer learning.
