The Youth Innovation Circles program (YIC) for 2025 has began. On Thursday, February 6, 2025, Duapa Werkspace hosted the Knowledge Exchange and Collaboration session `for young entrepreneurs and innovators from the Western Region. The program, a partnership between Duapa Werkspace and HapaSpace Collaborative Hub, aims to create a dynamic platform where participants can exchange knowledge, collaborate, and develop innovative solutions to regional challenges.
Participants shared their innovations and discussed the challenges they face in scaling their ideas. This collaborative environment fostered a space for peers to provide feedback, share insights, and offer suggestions to help refine and improve solutions.
A panel discussion also took place, featuring three participants who shared their entrepreneurial journeys. They spoke candidly about the difficulties they encountered and the strategies they employed to overcome obstacles, offering valuable, real-world advice to others in the program.
The YIC 2025 continues with a series of focused sessions aimed at equipping young innovators with the skills, knowledge, and networks necessary to drive change and foster growth within the region.
