The Innovation and Entrepreneurship programme at SST presupposes that innovative and entrepreneurial mindsets can be developed through practice and internalization of relevant knowledge and skills, which when acquired will give students the competitive advantage as well as the necessary aptitudes and attitudes to function optimally and successfully in the real world.

At SST, we believe that a practitioner with an innovative and entrepreneurial mindset will be instinctively alert to changes in the environment, respond to it and leverage on the opportunities afforded.
