The announcement of an extensive collaboration between OMDis, Uconomy Namibia and Nedbank Namibia is set to increase the allure even further.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOMDis has been established to transform our town and accelerate its economic diversification, such that it evolves into a vibrant centre for enterprises and provide further impetus for businesses operating in Oranjemund,\u201d says Tony Bessinger, General Manager of OMDis. \u201cThis collaboration that we are undertaking with Nedbank Namibia and Uconomy Namibia will unquestionably usher in a new era for both our town and the rest of Namibia in supporting SME development.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scha van Niekerk says Uconomy Namibia has the perfect model to support the OMDis vision for Oranjemund. \u201cWe have extensive experience in building viable enterprises within communities, and look forward to embedding these tried and tested elements of our programme in the town. We have a three-layered approach, which ultimately enables young talent to enter the world of work, support the SME sector and build an ecosystem with the specific aim of driving an integrated socio-economic development platform within the areas of our operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nedbank Namibia\u2019s Managing Director, Martha Murorua, says the multi-faceted collaboration has been months in the making. \u201cWe are excited for the opportunity to make such a meaningful impact and improve the livelihood of entire communities. Whilst this collaboration is seen as a pilot project, we are creating a blueprint that can ultimately be scaled throughout Namibia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Murorua says that Nedbank Namibia is keenly invested in providing opportunities for Namibia\u2019s youth to chart their own destinies and contribute to the economic prosperity of the country. \u201cIt has never been lip service for us, and the development of our \u2018Young Professionals\u2019 product offering is testimony of our resolve to continue our deep involvement in youth-driven enterprise development,\u201d said the Nedbank MD. The joint SME and Economic Development Pilot Project in Oranjemund is set to kick off immediately. mrobert@namibiadailynews.info<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
