Tender: Public Private Partnership Competition to co-fund Socio-Economic Projects

The German Development Service (DED) in cooperation with the Lowveld Chamber of Business & Tourism (LCBT) is hosting a competition in which you can stand the chance to win R 100.000 to co-fund your socio-economic development project.
The DED is one of the leading European development services for personnel cooperation, which offers a Public Private Partnership (PPP) Programme that seeks to create a win/win situation between the German Development Service and the South African private sector.

If your innovative development initiatives are located in Mpumalanga and are about: employment creation, skills development, introduction of energy saving technologies, ecological awareness creation, improving health care, certification of products and production processes (Fair-trade) or the development of ICT infrastructure, then
Don’t think twice and enter the competition!

Winning is easy, the company with the best project proposal will receive a matching grant of R 100.000 for their development project. The matching grant requires the South African company to add R 1 for every R 1 contributed by the German Development Service. Consequently, your total project budget will sum up R 200.000.
