Up to 10,000 youths have been picked to join the KCB Foundation’s 2Jiajiri technical and vocational training scholarships programme.
The foundation is using a franchise model and joint venture partnerships in a bid to link beneficiaries with training and market access.
The structure of the partnerships, said KCB, allows 2jiajiri beneficiaries to have a stake in the ownership of businesses that they establish in conjunction with the partnering companies.
This is either through a joint-venture, franchise agreements or branch-operator model.
