INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY: BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT FOR CONGO PROJECT

Are you a Bachelor’s or Master’s student in Business Administration? Join us at the ground level of an exciting startup aimed at making a significant impact. We are a passionate team of artists dedicated to establishing a non- profit organization focused on developing a creative project to empower identity in the Congo. This project is not just about business growth; it's about creating meaningful change in one of the world's most resource-rich yet challenging environments. We offer the possibility of an internship (3 month voluntary or 5-6 month mandatory internship), possibly in combination with a final thesis in our startup.

WHO WE ARE

• Early Stage: We are at the very beginning of our journey, driven by a commitment to Afrocentric innovation and social impact.
• Diverse Leadership: Our team consists of artists with a broad range of backgrounds, committed to creating sustainable and ethical business models.
• Innovation Focused: We strive to develop models that go beyond traditional capitalism, valuing ethical considerations as much as commercial viability.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Dynamic Role: Interns will participate in business planning, strategy development, and foundational accounting processes.
• Real-World Impact: Opportunities to tackle real-world challenges and potentially write a thesis on relevant issues faced by our project.
• Career Pathway: Interns have the potential for long-term employment following a successful internship.

INTERNSHIP DETAILS

• Scope: We are open to involving both Bachelor’s and Master’s students in Business Administration.
• Duration and Type:
  • Voluntary Internships: 3 months, ideal for gaining initial exposure and experience.
  • Mandatory Internships: 5-6 months, which can be aligned with the practical phase required by Bachelor’s programs in their 6th semester.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Collaborate in drafting a comprehensive business plan.
• Help establish and manage the non-profit organization, navigating financial resources and legal requirements (e.g., management of an existing UG with €5000).
