Entebbe, Uganda - SHIFT Enterprise Academy, a Texas-based social enterprise, is excited to announce it recently completed "SHIFT Launch Pad," a three-day intensive business accelerator in M'Bale, Uganda, on December 28, 29, and 30, 2022. This year's boot camp theme was "Time is money, and mindset determines how you use both." Led by its founder, Ethan Brisby, the boot camp was held on the grounds of LivingStone International University in liaison with the school's administration. All of the 12 invited Enterprisers completed "Launching into E-Commerce," a five week virtual training which teaches the pillars of SHIFT. Nine of the 12 are finalists of one of the three SHIFT pitch competitions held since October 2021. During the boot camp, "Enterprisers" as SHIFT refers to its community members were challenged to think critically and in ways that can helps them get 'from where they are now to where they want to be in the future.' Sectors represented at the event range from media to beauty to agriculture to tourism. During the highly interactive Launch Pad event, Enterprisers faced the sometimes-challenging task of building out a complete business plan with measurable financial projections. The East African founders received hands on guidance to create detailed financial projections, including revenue and expense forecasts, cash flow statements, and sales strategies. “The aim of SHIFT Launch Pad is to prepare this cohort of Enterprisers to go from idea to market. Then be able to pitch investors in 2023 that can help them scale within 18 months, Brisby stated. "I tell this group all the time they are the vanguards of what SHIFT will do here in East Africa and beyond.” One of the key takeaways for many Enterprises is the team building exercises. One such activity created teams of four with each individual pitching a product launch event idea to their team. Then teams selected one event to plan using practical business and market data. Through this exercise, attendees describe walking away with lessons in time management, event planning, and teamwork. Launch Pad ended with each Enterpriser sitting down for a discussion with Brisby to share insights about how SHIFT is impacting their life and their outlook on business. During these discussions Enterprisers describe the experience as "very magical," "mind triggering," and "mind shifting" again and again.

After a five-week program Launching into e-commerce, it is finally time to wrap up the 2022 summer cohort with a WIN. It has been a mixture of hard work and learning of new practical things that help you to have what it takes to get to the next level of entrepreneurship. My name is Yvonne Kiambi, the founder of 360° Interiors, which emerged as the recently completed pitch competition winner. My journey with SHIFT has been full of discoveries and learning of new things through the 'Five Pillars of SHIFT'. When I joined, I did not have much grasp of the business world, or maybe starting my own business. But as time went on, my mindset SHIFT-ed and I gained a new perspective. Along the way, I have exposed myself to books and educational materials, and one of the interesting things I've come across is priming. Priming occurs when a stimulus, such as an image, word, or idea, activates the part of the brain responsible for perceiving and reacting to it, making you pay attention to it more closely. The concept of priming explains how certain actions, words, or experiences can influence your perception, behavior, and goals. Most of the time, this occurs unconsciously. However, it can be used to alter your attention in a way that's most beneficial to you. Priming can be effective in orienting your brain to what you want, as well as what you don't want. Simply, when you prime for success, then success is coming your way as you work towards it. Over the program, I also got a chance to work with the amazing team at SHIFT Enterprise Academy and I have a view of the ins and outs of how the organization works. Let's just say that it's impressive. A high level of coordination and planning makes the experience at SHIFT feel seamless. My leadership skills were revamped as a result, and I can confidently say that I am ready to head out into the world and positively impact others. Finally, special thanks to the entire SHIFT team for bringing this amazing program to us the young people and helping us navigate the entrepreneurship world. For the incoming October cohort, it's your time to step into the next level of knowledge. As Ethan Brisby, the founder of SHIFT, says, "Bring your own energy." About SHIFT Enterprise Academy.

As the SHIFT Summer Cohort - 2022 is coming to an end, I feel equipped and ready to go out into the world and make an impact, both in my personal life and the entrepreneurship industry. Furthermore, after being given a chance to experience what happens behind the scenes in making SHIFT possible and interacting with the staff, nothing could have made me happier as my leadership skills have grown. One of the interesting topics that we discussed over Week 5's Think Accurately was on distractions. Distractions are enemies of success, not just in the entrepreneurial world, but also in personal life. To build up something substantial, you need to remain focused on the task at hand and do it to completion to achieve the desired results. Getting away from distractions can help you think clearly and focus on your inner thoughts, which can help you listen to your intuition and improve your performance. Unfortunately, our modern world mostly prevents this from happening. This is where the presence of mind comes in. The presence of mind is a bridge between your intelligence and feelings. It allows you to connect both of these elements to create balanced energy for any situation in life. The ability to recognize your feelings and thoughts and to foster greater consciousness is the presence of the mind's most significant function. With the presence of mind, you can remain attentive at the present moment. In certain ways, it has an advantage over a mind solely thinking of the long future. That's only because you can't accomplish long-term objectives without putting in the work now. You must give everything you have to whatever you're doing right now if you want to succeed in life. And to me, this is a major stepping stone in an entrepreneur's journey. For my final thoughts, I would like to sincerely thank the entire SHIFT team for putting together the Launching into e-commerce program, especially the founder, Ethan Brisby. This program has nurtured and given me both the space and the knowledge to build on my business, 360° Interiors, an interior design business based in Nairobi, Kenya. Cheers to a beautiful ending and an amazing beginning. Yvonne Kiambi.

Every success story has a beginning, and I believe that as a young person, SHIFT Enterprise Academy is where mine is. My name is Yvonne Kiambi, a student at the Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in Kenya. Currently, I am pursuing a degree in Real Estate. Like many college students, my exposure to the business world has always been quite limited. Nonetheless, a lot of times, I have thought about starting a business, but I was ill - equipped and that kept me procrastinating. It has been two weeks since I joined the SHIFT summer cohort - 2022 under the theme "Launching into E-commerce," and my perspective on entrepreneurship has completely pivoted. I have come from thinking that being an entrepreneur, especially in the East African market, is quite far-fetched and limited to “certain” people to being equipped, ready and excited to learn and start my own online business. Read: The SHIFT Impact: A conduit to change I believe that SHIFT is a revolutionary organization and a priceless opportunity for me and many young people across Africa. With the right effort, time and dedication, you can learn and acquire the right e-commerce skills. Over the remaining four weeks, I cannot wait to dive more into e-commerce, especially digital marketing, with the leadership of Ethan and his team. “Action is the foundational key to all success.” - Pablo Picasso About SHIFT Enterprise Academy SHIFT Enterprise Academy is a hybrid social enterprise and personal development consulting firm based in the USA with programming in four countries.

As part of the SHIFT summer cohort - 2022, I have gained so much knowledge on how to start and run my own business. In this week's class, Imagine Your Goal, I was captivated by one particular topic we discussed, and that is "Visualization." Visualization is creating a vivid mental image of what you want your business to be at some point in the future, based on your goals and aspirations. Why is this important? Visualization is useful because it gives your business a clear focus and it can also stop you from heading to the wrong direction. Could the simple act of imagining a successful act possibly lead to greater success in real life? Well, according to science, yes, it does. Visualization works because the neurons in our brains are capable of perceiving and interpreting images as if they are real-life actions. When we visualize an image, the brain activates a certain region called Hippocampus that creates memories. This region then tells our neurons to perform the action. This new neural pathway then guides our body in a way that is consistent with what we've imagined. Amazing, right? So, exactly how can you visualize achieving the right results? Right from the get-go, visualization is something that we do daily. For instance, as you plan for your outfits, you mostly have a vivid image of the outfit you want to wear even before you look for it in your closet. The same applies to your business. You should create a mental imagery of what you are planning to achieve and what your business will look like in the future. However, note that visualization is a skill that needs to be practiced. One of the most important factors that you can consider when it comes to becoming successful is having a habit of visualizing success. So, don't think that you can just sit back and dream about your life as if it will automatically improve. Instead, picture visualization as a tool you can use to reach your goals and improve yourself. It does not replace hard work, being loyal to yourself, and being surrounded by people who are genuinely interested in helping you reach your best.

Emaru John Julius has been part of SHIFT since 2021 when he first attended the "Launching into e-Commerce" program. However, that is not where his contact with entrepreneurship and online business actually begins. Here is his story; My name is Emaru John Julius from East Africa, Uganda, Teso Region. I'm from A family of seven children; five girls and two boys, located in the North Eastern part of Teso, Kapelebyong district. Being the second last born and the first boy to my mother, I got a chance to attend primary and secondary schools and became the first person to graduate from the university in our family. After graduating in 2016 with a Diploma in Animal Production and Management from Busitema University, I returned home and started a new life outside school. However, I had no job and business, so I ended up occupying my time with home duties and being on social media especially Facebook, in my free time. During this free time on social media, I landed on a Facebook page, Alliance in Motion Global, run by Mr. Nobert Isles from Philippines in 2017. After messaging him for more details, this was the start of a friendship that introduced me to many online webinars about persuasion and online marketing strategies. Along the way, I got to work with Wonderlube Racing Oil from Philippines as the East African marketing director for three years while marketing this new organic product worldwide. Mr. Nobert later introduced me to other companies such as NextGen International, Em Earth, and S.K Gold LLC Dubai as their online marketer. All these businesses created a great relationship between me and the business world. I learnt a lot of marketing strategies, business language, the power of persuasion, and success stories from many huge businessmen and women worldwide. Along the way, I got the chance to be part and parcel of SHIFT Enterprise Academy since 2021. The ”Launching into E-Commerce” SHIFT cohort classes I attended shaped my vision, my attitude and my courage to start up a business that will benefit the entire world. Thanks to Mr. Ethan Brisby, the founder of SHIFT Enterprise Academy for giving the world, including me, an opportunity to join the global online business to make a change and shift our minds from where they are to where we dream of being.

Engule Bern is the founder of Saben Foods, a for-profit social enterprise integrating hundreds of the last mile small producing farmers into sustainable supply chains in Northern Uganda. He is among 15 young adults selected for the SHIFT summer cohort - 2022, “Launching into E-Commerce,” benefiting immensely from the business incubator/accelerator program. Here is his story; My idea for Saben Foods came about because most remote farmers in Uganda do business in disorganized food markets with limited transport, lack of finance for aggregation, and no connection between producers and final buyers. Farmers are often forced to sell to middlemen for low prices, busy urban food retailers, 80% of whom are women, struggle to find a reliable supply of high-quality and traceable produce, and rural employment opportunities are limited. Unhindered internet access is now no luxury but a necessity in daily business transactions worldwide. Saben Foods plans to leverage digital and mobile technology to offer a distribution platform for most remote small-producing farmers and a purchasing center for busy urban food retailers. SHIFT Enterprise Academy incubation has allowed us to gain valuable insights from key experts. We really enjoy the diagnostic panel as they make us reason deeply and strategically in areas of managing, pitch deck presentation, and venture structures. I’m encouraging every budding entrepreneur to register for soon-opening cohorts to learn business development from a world-class mentorship program.

M’Bale, Uganda needs our help. Many people were already struggling mightily with the ongoing global economic downturn, including supply chain lapses. Now, a nearly weeklong terrestrial rain fall has claimed the lives of nearly 30 people and caused thousands to be displaced. The region needs you to seize this moment to help provide care packages; food, clothing, medication, and bedding.

For nearly 18 month, Ethan Ellsworth Vocational school in Eastern Uganda was forced to close its doors as a result of the global Covid-19 pandemic. Due to the hard work and dedication of the school's Founder, Erasmus Ichode and his team, the doors are back open. Ethan Ellsworth offers vocational training in the following areas: Baking, Hair Braiding, Sewing, Bricklaying, Mechanical Engineering, and Solar Panel Installation. Ethan Ellsworth Bricklaying (Construction Science) program is one of the more well-respected among small schools in Uganda. Many of the young men who complete Bricklayer training are able to immediately begin work on construction sites in Uganda's capital city, Kampala. The modest vocational school is the reason SHIFT Enterprise Academy expanded its reach into East Africa with a plan of empowering graduates to launch or expand their business using the 'SHIFT Approach.' The school, named after a friend of Ichode who was killed in a car crash opened it's doors in 2019 just before the onset of the pandemic. Now, as Ethan Ellsworth re-launches it is operating on a very lean budget, and leverages the generosity of its supporters to positively influence the local economy of the community it serves. You can invest in the future of a young person through SHIFT below. Or reach out to us to be connected with Ichode, to learn more about the business structure of Ethan Ellsworth. Erasmus, was the first Enterprisers to use the SHIFT Approach on the continent of Africa. He has since infused the ideals of SHIFT with his heart of a lion to help slay dragons in doing the mission driven work he loves in his native land, Uganda.

With East African nations; Rwanda, Uganda, and Kenya experiencing consistent growth and development, SHIFT Enterprise Academy is needed more and more each day. Young people in East Africa are responding by aligning themselves with the SHIFT Approach. Last week we were able to register an entire cohort of 15 Enterprisers in only four day! SHIFT Enterprise Academy is a social enterprise that identifies youth and young adults then helps them develop the mindset to solve problems in their community. Our East African program, "Launching into E-Commerce" is design to take the SHIFT mission to the next level by helping young people launch or expand e-commerce businesses. According to e-commerce giant, Shopify, global ecommerce sales are expected to reach $5 trillion in 2022, and $6 trillion by 2024. Moreover, businesses continue to follow consumer demand online, flocking to ecommerce in record numbers. Further, this digital growth is very predictable on the continent due in part to several countries leaping from strictly agrarian economy to the more globally integrated, digital economy. Read the entire Shopify report here: https://www.shopify.com/research/future-of-commerce/future-of-ecommerce The International Trade Administration concludes, the logic of growth on this area is pretty much based on technology jumps that do occur within Africa because of historically missing economic infrastructure, such as banks, telecom landlines, etc. Africa is forecast to surpass half a billion ecommerce users by 2025, which will have shown a steady 17% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of online consumers for the market. Read more from the Rise of E-Commerce in Africa here: https://www.trade.gov/rise-ecommerce-africa In a recent interview with Business Day Nigeria, Juliet Anammah, Jumia Nigeria Chairperson made it clear Jumia understands this is only the infancy of the digital economy on the continent. She told Business Day, "All said and done, we are the largest e-commerce platform on the continent, and you are on the continent where e-commerce is still 2-5% of total retail, which is a huge upside." Read more of Anammah's comments here: https://businessday.ng/news/article/africa-e-commerce-market-hugely-untapped-with-potential-for-growth-says-jumia-chairwoman/ This is why the work we are doing at SHIFT Enterprise Academy with our "Launching into E-Commerce" program is so vital. While we currently target university students living in urban spaces, many of our most promising Enterprisers live in more rural spaces. Some of these spaces still lack infrastructure to truly take advantage of today's opportunities. This reality fuels our efforts in Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Democratic Republic of Congo, and beyond. We know by planting these seeds today our Enterprisers, their families, and the entire SHIFT ecosystem will reap enormous communal benefits in the future. Learn more about SHIFT Enterprise Academy, our programs, our story, and our team at www.shiftenterpriseacademy.com Our next cohort of "Launching into E-Commerce" begins July 26. After such a promising response this week, we are opening five more spots for our summer cohort. Young adults living in Africa age 18-30 are encouraged to register. While young adults living in the US and elsewhere at 16-24 are also welcome to register. The SHIFT is here. REGISTER HERE ABOUT LAUNCHING INTO E-COMMERCE Created in 2021 as a pilot program to assist entrepreneurs in Eastern Uganda, "Launching into E-Commerce" is a six week online professional education course. The course introduces young leaders to the SHIFT Approach. The SHIFT Approach is rooted in using the framework of the SHIFT pillars to direct your ideas about success. The SHIFT Pillars are: Save your money: Basic understanding of budgeting as well as the economic principles of supply and demand Help your family: Taking a servant leadership approach to solving problems and attaining intergenerational mobility Imagine your goals: Designing your life over a 90 day and five year period based on your own clearly defined idea of success. Follow directions: Adhering to a plan by persevering despite any adversity your may face. Developing the mindset of a champion in the 21st century.

SHIFT Enterprise Academy, Inc a Texas based 501c3 non profit organization identifies promising young adults and helps them to solve problems in their community by using the SHIFT Approach. In summer 2021, SHIFT expanded its services into Uganda, a small country in Eastern Africa with a new program called, "Launching into E-Commerce." Here is an overview of what's going on in the SHIFT world as of the end of Q1 2022; the good, the bad, and the future. A video presentation of these updates is also available here: 1Q Performance Updates Presentation The Good 2021 Finalist Closes out 90 days - Our first pitch competition winner - Joel, the founder of Zebraville is up and running. He is already supporting African projects, including special projects supporting women in Uganda through his online digital media business. Winter Cohort – 2021 – Our journey in East Africa continues to impact the lives of young people. At SHIFT, we are relentlessly focusing our efforts on creating an enabling environment for young people in East Africa to build, create and evolve in the Digital Age. In March - 2022, at the conclusion of the winter cohort, SHIFT held its winter pitch competition and registered four finalists, all senior business administration students at LivingStone International University. Marceline, the winner of the winter cohort is from the Democratic Republic of Congo. He currently lives in Uganda and he is building an online platform for African writers and literature. Additionally, leveraging on our partnerships, Armand – our first runner up in the winter cohort pitch competitions secured an internship at AtkCo – one of the friends of SHIFT with whom we are building an eco-system of human - centered approaches. Our 2021 Impact Report - If you haven't read it already, early this year, we published our 2021 Annual Report highlighting the milestones in East Africa. Grants and Donations - With your support, SHIFT was able to raise $725 from three generous donors through Donor Box, our current online fundraising platform. Our monthly fundraising goal remains 1,000 USD. Thank you for journeying with us to make our vision of “a coalition of people and organizations helping the African diaspora define their own idea of success with a plan to achieve it” a reality. The Bad COVID-19 - Is there a Road to Recovery? - As many supporting organizations continue to feel the unprecedented brunt of COVID-19, Ethan Ellsworth, a key project supported by SHIFT, faces a hit due to financial strains. Currently, the school is closed due to lack of funding. This puts at stake the livelihoods of 200 young girls and 300 vulnerable boys who cannot continue acquiring the much-needed access to quality education through the Business, Technical, Vocational Education and Training program. The Digital SHIFT - It’s no secret that the digital age comes with change, some of which may not be easily within the means of the most vulnerable poor. Due to this shift, 5 /18 of the registered Enterprisers (27.8%) could not complete the “Launching into E-Commerce” professional training this winter. This is primarily due to lack of internet and smartphones or laptops. Also, we currently need three (3) laptops for our support team to coordinate access to services for Enterprisers across East Africa. The video captures Delilah's thoughts on the SHIFT impact in Uganda. She leads the support team in the region. The Future As an evolving organization, we have so much in store for you. Here is your chance to be a part of the change you want to see. Journey with us and look out for opportunities to join our future events including Trivia Night and T-Shirt Fundraisers. Be the first to know, join our mailing list. Networks & Partnerships - As we create our ecosystem, SHIFT is building and nurturing partnerships with key education institutions in East Africa, including Jomo Kenyatta University in Kenya and LivingStone International University in Uganda. Both universities are large, with: over 10,000 students enrolled in undergraduate and postgraduate courses, taught by approximately 2,500 academic staff. – The clues of success of such linkages have been traced in the USA, and we plan to replicate this in East Africa where there are fertile grounds to build, create and evolve with young Enterprisers. Ethan Brisby – Founder, SHIFT Enterprise Academy. Spring cohort coming soon - Registration for our spring cohort will be open soon. However, this is dependent on the realization of our fundraising goal of $1,200 USD which is to underwrite the training of 15 Enterprisers and support the launch of four (4) more online businesses in East Africa this quarter. SHIFT Launch pad coming soon 30 April.2022 - SHIFT Launch pad is the starting point for connecting like-minded individuals launching or growing online businesses. These monthly meet-ups will create opportunities for you to connect with our Enterprisers from East Africa and the USA.
