Amazon Web Services invites cloud-native, black-owned software firms to apply for its Equity Equivalent Investment Programme.
AWS has sponsored the placement of over 100 unemployed youth through YES in tech roles with its EEIP partners.
According to a statement, the 18- to 24-month enablement and acceleration programme represents the culmination of AWS's seven-year R365 million commitment to fostering digital innovation and economic transformation in SA. AWS says the EEIP is structured to address some of the challenges faced by black-owned cloud tech entrepreneurs, by offering operational funding, technical training, business development resources and direct access to its partner network.
Through focused training and certification, previously participating businesses have seen increases in revenue and profitability, while also expanding their market reach to compete on a global scale, notes AWS.
