Entrepreneurial Development Program or ED was developed from best practises of economic development programs. Our SEF team has over 30 years of personal business experience and we have been intimately involved in the development, launch and implementation of economic development initiatives world-wide since 1997. ED is based on two important principals, one entrepreneurs are the root of development and the entrepreneurs need the tools much like big business, Universal Managment Principles. We know these two factors can boast an outstanding success record with 80% of all businesses started, over 5 yearsWhy ED is differentTo liberate the ideas of people requires an extraordinary program capable of engaging entrepreneurs in a confidential and friendly way. ED recognizes that individuals have business ideas but may lack the knowledge to make their ideas ‘take off'. However, knowledge can be found and ED Facilitators become a valuable asset in the pursuit. ED complements the work of economic development practitioners who have training, space, financial resources, etc. Facilitators organize and align clients for the resources that they need, when they need them. By providing local people with the resources and knowledge they need in order to be successful in business, a parallel economy is born.
