Entrepreneurship is like mountaineering. The way is very strenuous and long. It takes a lot of effort and time to reach the goal you are aiming for. But even though you often do not see the goal itself, you find a lot of fascinating and beautiful things along the way; and once in a while you can take a glimpse at the summit, giving you hope and motivation to continue, no matter how strenuous it is or might be. The important thing then is to look down again and focus on the moment, rather than looking into the future thinking about what it would be like to stand on the summit now. There will be difficult sections along the way which, if you are not careful and focus on every step, will make you fall. It is hard work to get to the summit and it can only be done if you take one step at a time.

A rather spontaneous and non-prepared interview, right before we went online. Still, very nice initiative and big thanks to Viktoria Trosien for this opportunity. Hope to see her again at this years’ Startupcamp. View video…

Fungai Alexander Mapondera, a 26 year old economics and communication sciences student pursuing his Masters’ degree at the Università della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano as well as the University of St. Gall, was born and raised in Zimbabwe and educated in the United Kingdom. He is an entrepreneurially very active person. In 2005 he founded the Savile Image Group, in 2008 the Contemporary Indigenous Youth Development Africa (CIYDA) project and won the Business Enterprise Award from the University of Portsmouth UK in 2004.
Fungai Alexander is one of two winners of the first Jobzippers scholarship 2009.
His project: “Contemporary Indigenous Youth Development Africa (CIYDA)”
Contemporary Indigenous Youth Development Africa (CIYDA) is a Zimbabwean based non-profit organization working towards filling a void in youth engagement and advocacy that has for so long been left unaddressed. CIYDA works as an information hub and advocacy organization on youth development related issues within its four pillar structure namely, Business Start-up; Social & Cultural Integration; Youth Mentorship and Youth Volunteering. As part of its direct engagement efforts with youths and seeking synergies to its main activities, CIYDA also seeks to work with various partners in initiating youth developmental projects.
CIYDA recognised the need to engage various entities, both public and private sector to complement its innovative approaches to youth development in Zimbabwe and work together for a sustainable outcome and future for Zimbabwean youths. Amongst some of these to encourage CIYDA were the Ministry of Youth, Zimbabwe Youth Council and Jobzippers, a Swiss based student organization who recognised CIYDA’s efforts in applying various feasible approaches to youth development. Jobzippers funding goes a long way in ensuring youths with bankable businesses projects can get a better stepping stone as well as those seeking to make a difference through CIYDA’s volunteering and mentorship programs.
We are looking forward to follow the success of CIYDA. We will keep you posted in our scholarship blog. Applications for the 2010 scholarships will be accepted starting February 2010. Check out our website for updates.

28 year old Elena Rybak from Germany is currently studying Art & Multimedia Design at the Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz as well as Product Design at the Fachhochschule Trier. Over the last years she has gained practical know-how in various domains ranging from art, design, jewelery as well as customer relations at fairs.
Elena is one of two winners of the first Jobzippers scholarship 2009.
Her project: ”With the Eyes of a Child”
What is is all about? It is a painting competition for schools and childcare centers in Kanton Basel and in a second stage throughout Switzerland. Children at the age of 7 to 16 paint their city in the way they see it or would like to see it. On an A3 sheet of paper or canvas.
There are 3 different age groups 7-10, 11-13, 14 -16. The 100 best drawings of each group will be selected by a jury of five qualified members. The selected works (300 in total) will then be exhibited for 5 days (Monday to Friday) in a public place in Basel e.g. the major’s house. On the subsequent weekend the winning drawings will be sold out in a public auction with the revenues going directly to the children as well as their schools.
In addition, the 4 best drawings from each group (12 total) will be selected and printed in a calendar (with interviews and pictures of the children that drew the paintings in the back of each calendar page). These calendars will be sent out to companies as well as politicians. Additional calendars will be sold to the public. Again, the revenues will directly go towards the kids and their schools.
In a second step, similar events can be organized in every Kanton to determine a national winner.
We are very excited to sponsor this project and will be looking forward to see the outcome. We will keep you posted in our scholarship blog.
