Starting a business is never easy. But an organization like TechnoServe can make it easier. A businessman in the American state of Connecticut, Ed Bullard, launched these nonprofit group 40 years ago with its name coming from the idea of technology in the service of mankind. (13) Looking for business solutions to rural poverty, the group has helped create or improve more than 2000 businesses in about 30 countries. Luba Vangelova, an employee of TechnoServe in Washington, D. C., tells us the group has an estimated budget this year of about $45 million, much of which will support business training and development programs in Latin America, Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. In parts of Central America, for example, TechnoServe is helping coffee producers become competitive in new and growing markets. In rural India the group is assisting farmers with crop production. (14) And in Mozambique, TechnoServe is helping develop the travel and tourism industry. One way it identifies promising entrepreneurs is through a business plan competition called Believe Begin Become, an intensive program that provides technical training and expert advice. (15) Winners receive money to bring their business plans to reality. TechnoServe has held nine national competitions in Central America since 2002, five in Africa, including one in Tanzania last year. A TechnoServe channel on YouTube describes Believe Begin Become and some of the winning business plans. According to Luba Vangelova, TechnoServe also supports entrepreneurship programs for teenagers and young adults. Charity Navigator, an independent group that raise American charities, has given TechnoServe its highest rating.
