Ghanaian Speaker Urges Entrepreneurs: Take Risks, Not Favors

The TESCON-UCC Annual Social Networking event in Ghana recently hosted a motivational speaker who shared valuable insights on entrepreneurial success. The speaker stressed the importance of networking, emphasizing the need for genuine connections rather than simply asking for favors. "The future belongs to risk-takers, not security seekers," he stated, urging attendees to be bold and share their challenges without resorting to handouts. He used the example of students asking for laptops, contrasting this with the more effective approach of building relationships and offering value. The event provided a platform for young entrepreneurs to connect and learn from experienced professionals, highlighting the importance of perseverance and building a strong network.
