"The greatest debt we owe the younger generation is the responsibility of impacting knowledge, wisdom and support through experience sharing and mentorship."- My view "To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science."- Albert EinsteinTo me, apart from conceiving and following up with a workable business idea, one major barrier I have personally experienced and observed now and often, among potential young entrepreneurs and Innovators including NGOs, Civil Societies and new Start-ups in Nigeria, Africa and all over the globes, are the problems with start-up capital or what is sometimes called seed money. The non availability of investment capital and of basic resources including experienced mentorship programs is indeed one of the greatest banes of most young people today from venturing into successful entrepreneurship. And these trends if not properly checked through information and deliberate mentorship schooling like this package, it could mare and slow down the global efforts towards poverty, extreme hunger, inequalities and youths restiveness eradication. Whatever name you decide to call them, the issues and challenges of raising money to implement one's business ideas and source out basic resources for new business, is the subject matter of this book. Crossing the start-up capital bridge and challenge, is always a very tedious and herculean tasks that most people especially the younger generation, who are supposed be potential and great entrepreneurs, give up on their business ideas. This indeed, calls for a concerted effort if unemployment and poverty with youth's restiveness must be checked and eradicated today. From my personal experience with the HETAVAD SKILLS Initiative which was conceived and started some two decades ago- precisely in the year 1997, the story is better told than be experienced. Raising the seed capital to run this laudable idea has been a major set-back until through creative engagements and efforts as you will soon discover below, just recently, we were able to make some real move towards executing the HETAVAD SKILLS Initiative to some levels of progress and impacts . I have personally interacted with a good number of creative young people with diverse entrepreneurial ideas but seem stocked at the point of their ideas not knowing how to overcome this critical stage of moving forward due to lack of investable capital. Now, the employment market is getting even slimmer and smaller, the vital step and advice to most people now is for our young people to venture in and start up a business. And truly, that is the most needed dimension for the world to experience peace and sustainable development. But the question then is how and where are the young people to find start-up capital to begin and invest in their business ideas? Every truly concerned individual and group must see this dimension as the needed rightful thinking that must be bridged now before it is too late. So this book is a positive step in this direction. That is, fending for the vast needs of millions of young people who must be encourage to venture in and start-up their businesses to close the gap of unemployment, poverty, hunger and restiveness with violent crimes today.
