The Entrepreneurial Journey Igniting a Rural Revolution | Terence Maphosa | TEDxJohannesburgSalon

In his TEDxJohannesburg talk, Terence Maphosa shares a compelling journey from rural poverty to entrepreneurial success, revealing the transformative power of resilience and intelligence in overcoming challenges. Emphasising the crucial role of social media, Maphosa illustrates how it connects communities and brings attention to his rural initiatives. The narrative unfolds into the evolution of his poultry project, expanding into a comprehensive rural enterprise with a unique restaurant experience. Maphosa advocates for grassroots solutions, critiquing traditional donation models, and envisions replicating his success to empower communities in southern Africa, addressing global challenges at the local level. Terence, with six years of experience in rural development, leads KwaTerry Rural Restaurant, promoting rural tourism. The business spans improved roadrunner chicken breeding, organic meat production, horticulture, and goat farming. Terence advocates against hunger and plans to export his produce to international markets. He aids underprivileged children in education and has empowered 300 rural youths with "free" roadrunner chicks. He holds an Honours Degree in Political Science from the University of Zimbabwe. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Great storytelling Terry, congrat! You are both inspirational and philanthropic.

[@tauraigwasira7174]

Terry, you are a light 💡 of Hope. Thank you so much 🇿🇼

[@SureKasenye-ex5tb]

awesome, brilliant....This rural innovative business model can revolutionize our rural communities and generate millions. However there is need for the government of Zimbabwe to give land rights to Zimbabweans, give them title deeds that can be bankable and help everyone who owns a piece of land convert it into monetary value that can help rural poor folks raise capital through loans...Foodforthought.......great work Terry

[@Designsewingstudio]

My question is how are we going to do it when the government is going around dispersing people and refusing people to do farming in rural areas?😊
