Profitable 2010 Business Opportunities to choose from
Inadequate business skills and financing difficulties make it a challenge for South Africans to realise these benefits. Limited knowledge of the business opportunities and the means to access them is another problem faced by South Africans who wish to profit from the country's hosting of the 2010 World Cup.
Addressing this, the 2010 Business Opportunities Expo in Sandton in July and in Cape Town in August, identifies sectors where opportunities are expected.
“Visitors to the expo will not only hear about the opportunities, but will also meet the very exhibitors from the different sectors who are providing these opportunities. They can expect to receive critical information, form partnerships and gain access to these opportunities,” says Neli Mabaso, convener of the Expo.
