The University of Central Asia’s (UCA) School of Professional and Continuing Education (SPCE) organised an event on 28 March where 30 alumni of UCA’s entrepreneurship programme pitched business project ideas and competed for financial awards. The eight best pitches received grants from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for further business development. The entrepreneurship programme was launched by UCA’s SPCE in January 2019 for young entrepreneurs aged 18-28 with a business idea for developing a startup. The programme was offered to participants free-of-charge, and provided an opportunity for the entrepreneurs to increase their awareness about the entrepreneurial world, and learn how to run a successful business.
