Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Women entrepreneurs in Kabale District have been asked to be resilient to register tangible success.<\/p>\n

Ms Fausta Kyomukama, a business trainer made the remark in Kabale District during a two-day training workshop for women entrepreneurs sponsored by Nation Media Group-Uganda (NMG-U), dfcu bank, Uganda Airlines and Uganda Investment Authority under the Rising Woman 2023 project.<\/p>\n

The sixth edition of the Rising Woman 2023 project was launched on August 9, under the theme: \u2018Taking your business ahead\u2019 with a view of recognising, celebrating, and promoting a culture of mentorship among women doing business.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou must embrace technological developments, especially the use of mobile phones to promote your business. Carefully select business enterprises and partners, respect your business premises, and work as a team besides concentrating on quality goods. You must demonstrate resilience if you want to succeed in your businesses,\u201dMs Kyomukama said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

She also asked women entrepreneurs to join social media platforms that add value to their businesses instead of gossiping.<\/p>\n

Ms Irene Mbaruka, another business trainer in Kabale, asked the entrepreneurs to register their businesses with the Uganda Registration Service Bureau to avoid disruptions.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou must focus on disrupting your business before it disrupts you. This will lead to the growth of your business. This will also allow you to compete with others because of the current technological advancements in the world market. Those that are involved in value addition, invest in getting more skills on how to make your products attractive to the prospective buyers,\u201dshe said.<\/p>\n

Mr David Jonathan Ssentongo, the senior events activations and promotions manager at NMG-U, said: \u201cThis culture of mentoring women in business is not only aimed at equipping them with skills on financial management, business resilience and digitalisation but also equipping them with skills on writing competitive business proposals.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe best business proposal writer will win a cash prize of Shs15m, the second gets Shs10m and the third gets Shs5m. And 10 women with the best business proposals shall be taken to Nairobi in Kenya for further business mentorship.\u201d<\/p>\n

The dfcu Branch Manager for Kabale, Mr Justice Nuwagira, said: \u201cAt dfcu bank we have introduced Sukuma bank accounts that are good for the business community. Please come to us because there are several benefits when one is using this account. With this account we can give you a chequebook whose cheque leaves can be used as collateral security in case you want goods from your suppliers on credit,\u201d Mr Nuwagira said.<\/p>\n

The manager of women in business and special programmes at dfcu Bank, Ms Ruth Asasira, said they are moving across different districts training business women on how they can sustain and develop their skills and businesses.<\/p>\n
