Entrepreneurship plays a crucial role in strengthening the rural economy, generating livelihoods, and impacting remote and underserved communities.
Sustain Plus is driven towards enabling access to technological innovations to unlock micro-entrepreneurship-based livelihood solutions.
We encourage grassroots businesses to re-imagine, design, develop and implement their ‘new normal’. New technologies and clean energy innovations are coupled with financial and social activities, making them affordable and sustainable, catalysing local employment opportunities and making essential services available locally. Pointedly with a gender transformative focus, our programs support women to own, expand and diversify their businesses.
Our work in micro-entrepreneurship is taking root in enterprises involved in production and manufacturing, services, and retail. Connecting these enterprises with off-grid solar power, new equipment, and market accessibility has immense potential to increase productivity, efficiency, and sustainability outcomes, as well as reduce drudgery and operational expenses.
