Entrepreneurs Forum
Last year GIBS launched a full-time MBA exclusively for entrepreneurs. With an estimated 85% of start-ups failing in the first 12 to 24 months of operation, and approximately 60% to 65% of existing SME’s encountering major difficulties when embarking on a growth strategy, this is an area on which attention must be focused. Join our leading panel of self-made entrepreneurs for a personal discussion on the challenges they faced when starting off.
