The Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) is hosting the Entrepreneurship Development in Higher Education (EDHE) Programme Lekgotla 2018 from Wednesday, 27 June to Friday, 29 June, 2018. EDHE is a DHET-funded programme in collaboration with Universities South Africa (USAf).

The three-day gathering brings under one umbrella various players including academics, entrepreneurship administrators within South Africa’s public universities, as well as proven student entrepreneurs and national and international leaders in entrepreneurship to share best practices and fostering collaboration for the benefit of the South African youth and economy.

The Lekgotla will culminate into a Student Entrepreneurs Indaba on 29 June 2018 -- a session aimed at giving practical advice to student entrepreneurs, enabling them to grow their businesses while making a success of their studies.
