Testimonials
"Thank you so much for providing such an awesome experience for the innovators. Your seminars are first class."
Adrienne Stark's, PHD Founder & CEO STREAM Innovations
" My daughter took an entrepreneurship class with Samora Sobukwe 4 years ago and she is still bearing fruit from the experience! Samora met my daughter where she was, guided her through defining a thorough business plan that she was able to implement and supported her along the way; she always looked forward to having class. The online learning environment he created was encouraging and engaging and a perfect addition to our homeschool. As parents, my husband and I also appreciate that every interaction that we had with Samora was positive and affirming. Samora still checks in on our daughter; she has since created several business plans and plans to earn a business degree."
Kandyce Briggs, Parent
"As a homeschooler, I'm always searching for courses or learning opportunities to supplement my children's normal class" studies. So when my girlfriend told me about Samora's class teaching young people how to write a business plan, I was all in and enrolled my 10 year old son Melek.
From the very first interaction with Samora, I could tell that my son was going to enjoy the class, as well as, learn a very valuable skill set. Samora was very professional, well versed in the subject matter and made it super simple for my son to grasp the concepts and put them into action immediately.
At the end of the six weeks, Melek completed his business plan and was excited to share it with family members and friends. Thank you so much Samora for your passion to teach young people the steps to getting on the path of self sufficiency."
Tanya Durrah, Parent
"My twins took "The Top Twelve Components of a Business Plan Seminar" at age thirteen. The course was very easy to understand and implement. The teacher lead/ workbook style of teaching enabled my twin’s full comprehension; they successfully engaged in the Q&A discussion, delivered a live presentation, and most importantly, walked away with a business plan, business cards, marketing T-shirt and visor, and an actual business that earned them profits! The course workbook is a definite must for our youth and an excellent tool that will lay the foundation for successful business ideas and plans time and time again.

" I was blessed to have the opportunity to attend The Top 12 Components of a Business Plan Workshop taught by Samora Sobukwe the seminar was taught very well and my fellow peers in the class respected one another. I recommend this class to anyone because not only is it a great entrepreneurial experience, but it is also taught from a Community Empowerment Perspective!"
L. White, Age 16/ High School Student (Georgia)
"The Top 12 Components of a Business Plan training that I was able to participate in, presented by Samora Sobukwe was a very informative and essential program that taught me many ways of becoming an entrepreneur, and the steps to be a business planner and great organizer. Lessons in entrepreneurship and business development are quite important for young men and women to gain and this workshop explained the details of business terminology, community leadership, self-determination, self-confidence, and great planning/organizing. All in all this program was quite beneficial in helping me realize how important it can be to become an entrepreneur and with the tools from this workshop training, I can strive to have a successful and booming business of my own someday."
