“Durban Business Fair 2019 to Focus on the opportunities to exploit in the current 4th Industrial Revolution…”
September 2019, Durban – The Durban Business Fair is shifting things around by introducing sessions that will explore the opportunities for business for youth in the modern society. We are planting a shift in the minds of our youth, were social & digital media will no longer be viewed as a tool for just your ordinary post in a bid to attract likes and shares, but rather as a powerful instrument for profit generating activities that will see young people position themselves as influential brands that will participate effectively in the economy of Durban and the country as a whole.
The YOUTH CONNECT will be held on the 27th September 2019 from 9am at the Durban ICC and will be centralized around the theme of the Durban Business Fair: “Journey through Innovation” – “How Digital & Social Media can Build your Brand & Grow your Business.” The Youth Connect is open to the public and free to attend.
