Side hustles and full-time entrepreneurship – when is the right time to jump ship?

Taking the plunge to becoming a full-time entrepreneur takes courage, especially in times of economic uncertainty. Many people opt to keep their day jobs while testing the water with a ‘side hustle’ - and research suggests that those individuals end up having more sustainable businesses than those who leap into full-time entrepreneurship early on.

The challenge is the timing. When is the right time to ‘jump ship’? What are the risks and challenges? Does the South African entrepreneurship ecosystem take side hustles seriously enough for stakeholders to fund them?

Wits Business School is pleased to invite you to a webinar to debate and discuss these issues with our panellists:

  • Dr Hajo Morallane - a hybrid entrepreneur and founder of Entrepreter, commercialised PhD research e-commerce business and founder of Hafro Natural, a natural cosmetics brand
  • Nthabi Mokgosi - content creator, brand builder and founder of iLDESIGNS Creative Approach
  • Mzoxolo Gulwa - CEO of management consulting firm, PurpleGrowth

Dr Jabulile Msimango-Galawe,senior lecturer in Entrepreneurship at WBS and an entrepreneur and founder of DrJ Business Support, will facilitate the conversation.
