A turnkey mentoring programme for corporates looking to develop MSMEs in their supply chain, supplier development portfolio, or community initiatives. We combine expert mentoring with hands-on implementation — so the businesses you support actually grow.
S.E.E.D.S — Sustainable Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Development & Support. Designed for corporates who want measurable impact from their supplier development programmes. We pair each MSME with expert mentors and professional implementation services — so businesses don't just receive guidance, they get real deliverables: websites, financial systems, marketing strategies, and operational processes built alongside them.
Five pillars. One powerful methodology.
Building businesses that last. Long-term viability, not quick fixes that collapse when support ends.
Developing the mindset and practical skills to identify opportunities and execute on them.
A network of peers, partners, and opportunities that accelerate growth beyond what's possible alone.
Hands-on implementation of systems, strategies, and solutions. We don't just advise — we build with you.
Ongoing guidance that doesn't end with the programme. We walk alongside you until you lead on your own.
Select the programme that fits the development stage of the MSMEs in your portfolio.
Intensive short-term mentoring for quick impact
Ideal for corporates looking to support early-stage MSMEs with focused, short-term interventions. Three months of expert mentoring paired with hands-on implementation to tackle the most critical business needs of each mentee.
Deep, transformative mentoring for scaling
A comprehensive six-month programme for corporates committed to building sustainable supplier development pipelines. Extensive mentoring, implementation across multiple business areas, and a full support ecosystem to help each MSME scale.
Every MSME in your programme is matched with a multi-disciplinary team — not a single mentor, but a full squad of specialists working together around their business.
Website development, digital marketing, social media strategy, and AI implementation specialists who build your online presence.
Professional photographers, videographers, and copywriters who craft your brand story and produce compelling content that converts.
Human resources specialists who help you build the right team, structure your organisation, and create compliant employment practices.
Financial planning, bookkeeping systems, investment readiness, and funding strategy specialists who get your numbers in order.
All experts collaborate to deliver a holistic growth strategy tailored to each MSME in your programme.
