Southern Africa Future Institute of Innovation & Technology
SAFIIT is an international development institution that offers training and retraining for students in Diploma, Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral degree programs. It also provides skills acquisition and technology development training for youth and women business leaders, aiming to empower them to contribute to nation building.
The institute focuses on supporting SMEs, which are the heartbeat of any nation’s economy but have long been neglected—leading to negative economic consequences. SAFIIT aspires to be recognized as one of the most representative and effective institutes promoting MSMEs in the Republic of South Africa.
To this end, SAFIIT has taken a major step to collaborate with the University of Entrepreneurship & Technology, USA, and to establish a framework for the sustained growth of SMEs at regional, national, and international levels. This collaboration aims to integrate SMEs into the global value chain.
