Bright Hlongwane has been appointed as a new steering committee member for the BRICS Chamber of Commerce and Industry Young Leaders.

Take a listen below as Bright and Sam discuss the lack of private-public partnerships between the government and the youth and how YIBSA (Youth In Business South Africa) acknowledges that many youth-run businesses are not yet at a bankable stage.
